Right I need to change a patio lock for mums conservatory door. Simple to remove the lock no problem but checking the size of the lock and is 90mm total lenght.

But the offset is 50mm by 30mm and i've been to B&Q, Wicks, Homebase but non do this size. so have been looking in the net but finding this difficult to get the lock

Help anyone kno where I could find a lock of this size?

go to a proper locksmith. There are so many types that normal stores can't carry them all.

no affiliation, but bought some a while ago and good service, decent locks, and a good price. Double check you are measuring the same way they do, some places measure either side of the latch, so losing 10mm off the apparent size.

ETA I think you want their 55 - 35 lock.
