This hanger is specifically engineered for exposed rafter installations where the mounting hardware is visible and becomes part of the architectural design. The premium copper-tone finish and professional-grade construction ensure both superior performance and aesthetic appeal. Unlike hidden hangers, this external design complements traditional and historic architecture while providing secure mounting.

Heavy-gauge steel provides superior strength and durability essential for supporting the weight of 6" half-round gutters, especially when filled with water, snow, or ice. The robust construction ensures long-term structural integrity, prevents sagging, and maintains proper gutter pitch over decades. Professional contractors prefer heavy-gauge materials for their reliability and performance in demanding applications.

Our premium copper-tone finish features advanced weather-resistant coating technology that maintains its appearance and protection for decades. The finish is UV-stable, fade-resistant, and designed to withstand extreme weather conditions including rain, snow, and temperature cycling. This professional-grade coating provides both aesthetic appeal and corrosion protection for long-term performance.

For 6" half-round gutters, hangers should typically be spaced 24-32 inches on center for optimal support. In areas with heavy snow loads or extreme weather, closer spacing (24 inches) is recommended. The multiple adjustment holes in our hangers allow for precise positioning to accommodate your specific rafter spacing and ensure proper gutter support.

Professional installation is strongly recommended for safety and optimal performance. Gutter hanger installation requires working at dangerous heights, proper knowledge of structural mounting, and understanding of gutter pitch requirements. Professional contractors have the safety equipment, insurance, and expertise to ensure secure installation and proper system performance while maintaining architectural aesthetics.

Calculate the linear feet of gutter and divide by your chosen spacing (24-32 inches). For example, 100 feet of gutter with 24-inch spacing requires approximately 50 hangers, while 32-inch spacing needs about 38 hangers. Add extras for corners, downspout locations, and potential replacements. Our 10-pack bundles are perfect for most residential projects.
