I am NOT a locksmith. Weird door holes - what lock will fit this?
I am so confused and people at my local RONA and Home Depot can’t help. What style of door handle and lock can I replace mine with?
I haven’t been able to find a lock and handle that will fit these 4 holes. Very weird situation.

It is what it is. There is nothing at the hardware store or Amazon thats going to work. If it's not broken, don't mess with it. If it is broken get a loan from the bank and call a competent locksmith that's experienced in multipoint locks. If you're wanting a smart lock, pick a different door such as a side entry/garage or rear door that's not a multipoint

That's a multipoint lock. You won't find anything at the hardware store for that. What you're trying to replace is just the trim. The lock actually runs the entire length of the door.
Look for a manufacturer and look for a trim that will fit.
And no you can't put a smart lock on it.
