ABSTRACT:
An improved gutter hanger and leaf screen assembly is comprised of hangers formed with holes and grooves at their rearward ends for attachment of the hangers to the eave of a roof. The holes in the hangers are provided for the insertion of fasteners such as nails or wood screws therethrough, and the grooves are provided to position the fasteners in the holes by first inserting a tip of the fastener in the groove and sliding the fastener tip along the groove until it falls into the hole. The hangers are also provided with forwardly projecting tabs which facilitate the attachment of the leaf screen of the assembly onto the hangers and secure the rearward ends of the leaf screen on the hangers. The leaf screen of the assembly is formed with folds at its forward and rearward edges that are provided to securely hold the leaf screen on the hangers. Opposite left and right side edges of the leaf screen are also provided with flaps that overlap adjacent leaf screens when several screens are assembled side by side over the top openings of gutters. The overlapping flaps prevent gaps from forming between adjacent leaf screens and prevent leaves or other debris from falling through gaps between adjacent leaf screens.
