Singles from $9.99 | Box of 25 from $139.99 (100 linear ft)
The E-Z-Lock Small Hole Gutter Screen uses 1/4-inch perforations in 0.028-inch hot-dipped galvanized steel to block pine needles, leaf fragments, roof granules, and seed pods while allowing full water flow during heavy rain. Each section is 4 feet long and available in 5-inch, 6-inch, and 7-inch widths for K-style and box-style gutters. Two installation methods - snap-in or screw-fastened - give contractors the flexibility to match the installation approach to the roof and gutter profile without purchasing different products.

Who Uses E-Z-Lock Gutter Screens?
Contractors
- Gutter installation companies
- Roofing contractors
- Property management firms
- Multi-unit residential installers
- Commercial building maintenance
DIY Homeowners
- Reducing gutter cleaning frequency
- Blocking pine needles and leaves
- Protecting gutters from debris
- Preventing downspout clogs
- Home maintenance upgrades
Which Width Do I Need?
5" Width
- 5" K-style gutters
- Smaller homes
- Low-pitch roofs
- Light-debris areas
6" Width (Most Popular)
- 6" K-style gutters
- Standard residential
- Most common in Pacific NW
- Medium-debris areas
7" Width
- 7" box-style gutters
- Large rooflines
- High-debris environments
- Commercial applications
Measuring Tip: Measure the gutter width (full opening from front lip to back wall). If between sizes, choose larger and trim with tin snips.
What the 1/4" Hole Size Blocks vs. Allows:
Debris Blocked
- Pine needles
- Leaf fragments and whole leaves
- Roof shingle granules
- Seed pods (maple, oak, fir)
- Moss and lichen fragments
- Twigs and small sticks
- Most insects and nesting material
What Passes Through
- Rainwater at full flow rate
- Very fine sediment (washes through)
- Dust and pollen (too fine to block)
For ultra-fine debris (heavy pollen, sawdust), consider our 1/8-inch screen variant.
Snap-In vs. Screw-Fastened: Which to Choose
Snap-In (No Fasteners)
- Faster installation
- No tools required
- Removable for cleaning
- No shingle damage
- DIY-friendly
- Standard residential use
Screw-Fastened (Permanent)
- Maximum security
- High-wind zones
- Steep roof pitches
- Commercial applications
- Requires drill
- Permanent mounting
Bottom Line: Most residential DIY installations use snap-in for ease and removability. Contractors often use screw-fastened in high-wind areas or commercial jobs.
Installation Guide - Contractors and DIY:
Method A: Snap-In (No Fasteners)
-
Clean gutter: Remove all debris before installation
-
Hook rear edge: Hook screen over back wall of gutter
-
Press flat: Lay screen flush across gutter opening
-
Slide under shingles: Front edge slides under first shingle course
-
Continue run: Overlap sections by 1/2 inch at joints
-
Cut to fit: Use tin snips at corners and downspout openings
Method B: Screw-Fastened (Permanent)
-
Position screen: Follow steps 1-4 from Method A
-
Pre-drill holes: Drill through screen into rear gutter flange at 24" intervals
-
Drive screws: Use #8 x 3/4" self-tapping screws
-
Verify flat: Ensure no raised edges that could redirect water
-
Test after rain: Inspect from below to verify proper water flow
DIY Tip: Snap-in installation requires no special tools - just a ladder, tin snips, and tape measure. Most homeowners complete an average home in 2-3 hours.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: What size gutter screen do I need?
A: Measure your gutter width from the front lip to the back wall. 5" gutters need 5" screens, 6" gutters need 6" screens, and 7" box-style gutters need 7" screens. The 6" size is most common for residential homes in the Pacific Northwest.
Q: Will these block pine needles?
A: Yes! The 1/4-inch perforations are specifically designed to block pine needles, leaf fragments, roof granules, seed pods, and most debris while allowing full water flow during heavy rain.
Q: Can I remove the screens for gutter cleaning?
A: Yes - snap-in screens lift out without tools for seasonal maintenance access. Screw-fastened screens are permanent and require unscrewing for removal.
Q: How many screens do I need for my house?
A: Divide your total gutter length in feet by 4 (each section covers 4 ft), then add 10% for cuts and waste. A typical 150 ft home needs about 42 sections (2 Boxes of 25). The Box of 25 covers 100 linear feet.
Q: Can a DIY homeowner install these?
A: Yes! The snap-in method requires no special tools or fasteners - just a ladder, tin snips, and tape measure. Most homeowners complete an average home in 2-3 hours. The screen simply hooks over the back gutter wall and slides under the first shingle course.
Q: Can contractors pick up locally?
A: Yes! Local pickup is available at our Damascus, Oregon location Monday-Friday 7am-4pm PT. Call (503) 496-7017 to confirm stock availability or arrange contractor volume orders.
