The patented E-Z Lock mechanism features a specially designed edge that slides under your first row of shingles while the front edge snaps securely onto your gutter lip. The locking action creates a secure attachment without requiring screws, clips, or special tools. This innovative design distributes weight evenly and prevents damage to your shingles or gutters.

Choose regular hole mesh for standard debris like leaves, twigs, and general organic matter. This provides excellent protection while maintaining optimal water flow. Choose large hole mesh if you have pine trees, small seeds, or fine debris that can clog standard mesh patterns. The large holes allow superior water flow while still blocking larger debris that causes gutter problems.

Measure the width of your gutter opening from inside edge to inside edge. Most residential homes have 5" K-style gutters, while larger homes, commercial buildings, or areas with heavy rainfall often use 6" gutters. If you're unsure, contact us with photos of your gutters and we'll help you identify the correct size for optimal fit and performance.

The E-Z Lock system is compatible with most roof types including asphalt shingles, metal roofs, tile roofs, and cedar shake. The flexible design accommodates various roof pitches and configurations. The system slides under the first row of shingles without causing damage or requiring modifications to your existing roofing system.

Each E-Z Lock section is 4 feet long, so a box of 25 covers approximately 100 linear feet of gutters. For an average-sized home with 150-200 linear feet of gutters, you would need 2 boxes. Measure your gutter perimeter or calculate your home's perimeter to determine exact requirements. We recommend ordering 10% extra for overlaps and future repairs.

E-Z Lock guards require minimal maintenance. Occasionally, you may need to brush off debris that accumulates on top, especially after severe storms or during heavy leaf seasons. This can typically be done safely from the ground using a telescoping brush or leaf blower. Most customers find that normal rainfall keeps the mesh surface clean and functional.

E-Z Lock's patented system eliminates the need for tools, screws, or clips that can damage your roof or gutters. Unlike plastic guards that can crack or foam inserts that deteriorate, E-Z Lock uses professional-grade expanded steel mesh with powder coating for maximum durability. The system provides superior debris protection while maintaining excellent water flow compared to surface tension systems.
