1. A lock kit for a fenestration assembly including a first panel and a second panel, at least one of the first and second panels being slidable relative to the other of the first and second panels, the lock kit comprising:
a stop catch configured to mount to the second panel; and
a panel stop configured to pivotally mount to the first panel at a pivot location, the panel stop including an abutment portion and a hook portion opposite the pivot location from the abutment portion, the panel stop configured to pivot at the pivot location between a first stop position at which the abutment portion abuts the stop catch to maintain the first and second panels in a fully closed position, a second stop position at which the hook portion hooks the stop catch to limit relative sliding of the first and second panels beyond a partially-open position, and a third position at which the panel stop does not restrict the relative sliding of the first and second panels.
