ABSTRACT:
The invention is a bracket for installing a gutter cover for ducting rainwater to a rainwater gutter, where the gutter cover prevents debris from entering the gutter. The bracket is roughly shaped like three extended fingers, where each finger is a strut. The struts converge at a junction. The various struts are a lifting strut that supports the leading hooked frontal edge of a gutter cover, a stabilizing strut that has a hooked end that interlocks with the hooked edge of a frontal rim of a gutter trough, and a bracing strut that is a leg stemming from the junction to a bottom portion of the gutter.
