Copper half-round with copper STEELCO™ screen

 

For installing STEELCO™ screens on half-round gutters, the drop-in method is used. However, some half-rounds have an inside lip, allowing you to choose between the standard installation method (same as K-style gutters) or the drop-in method. For half-rounds with an outside lip, use the drop-in method, as described below.

For a brief animation showing installation on gutters with an INSIDE lip, click here.

The drop-in method is simply putting the STEELCO™ screen in place with the anchor clip bent perpendicular to the screen, so the clip drops down inside the gutter, as shown below (picture below is K-style gutter, but same applies to half-round). With the opposite edge of the screen under the shingles, the front edge rests on top of the gutter lip. Optionally, you may drill a hole and insert a screw, securing the screen to the gutter lip. If screws are used, one screw per section is all that is needed.
