How to Choose the Right Hidden Gutter Hangers
To choose the right hidden gutter hanger, consider your gutter's size and shape, where you'll attach it, and how much support it needs.
Gutterworks offers several gutter hanger types for residential and commercial gutter systems. Use the table below to compare your options.
| Hanger Type | Common Applications | Features to Consider |
|---|---|---|
| 5" Hidden Hangers | Residential and light commercial 5-inch gutter systems | Back clips, screw fasteners, and heavy-duty designs |
| 6" Hidden Hangers | Residential and commercial 6-inch gutter systems | Hanger strength, clip options, and gutter profile |
| 7" & 8" Commercial Hidden Hangers | Larger commercial gutter systems | Gutter size, material, and load requirements |
| Roof Straps & Roof Apron Hangers | Installations requiring roof-mounted support | Roof construction and attachment requirements |
Always choose a hanger that matches the gutter profile and mounting method. Review the product specifications before ordering to make sure the hanger fits your gutter.
Types of Hidden Gutter Hangers
Hidden Hangers With and Without Clips
Some hidden gutter hangers use back clips to secure the hanger to the gutter's rear edge, while others use different fastening methods. Gutterworks offers both styles to fit various gutter profiles and installation needs.
Heavy-Duty Hidden Gutter Hangers
Heavy-duty hidden gutter hangers feature reinforced designs that provide extra support for demanding installations. Gutterworks offers 5-inch and 6-inch options, including models with integrated screws and clips.
Commercial Hidden Gutter Hangers
Gutterworks offers 7-inch and 8-inch commercial hidden gutter hangers for larger gutter systems. Available materials include aluminum, galvanized steel, and stainless steel to meet different installation requirements.
Roof Straps and Apron Hangers
Roof straps and roof apron hangers secure gutters to the roof structure when a traditional fascia installation isn't an option. They provide support for installations where a fascia board is missing or unsuitable.
Benefits of Hidden Gutter Hangers
Strong Support for Your Gutter System
Hidden gutter hangers spread support along the gutter, helping prevent sagging and separation from the building. When properly installed, they help gutters handle the weight of rainwater and other expected loads.
Secure Fastening
Many hidden hangers use screws that fasten into the fascia board or structural framing. Threaded screws grip solid wood securely, while traditional smooth gutter spikes can loosen over time.
A Clean, Finished Appearance
Hidden hangers sit inside the gutter, leaving the front face free of visible mounting hardware. This creates a smooth appearance without sacrificing the support needed for a secure installation.
Hidden Gutter Hangers vs. Traditional Gutter Spikes
| Feature | Hidden Gutter Hangers | Traditional Gutter Spikes & Ferrules |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment Method | Use brackets and screws to secure gutters to the fascia or structural framing. | Use long spikes driven through the gutter and into the fascia. |
| Holding Power | Threaded screws provide a strong connection and help prevent loosening. | Smooth spikes can loosen over time as the wood expands and contracts. |
| Gutter Support | Brackets support the gutter to help prevent sagging. | Spikes and ferrules support the gutter, but loose spikes can lead to sagging. |
| Appearance | Hardware stays hidden inside the gutter for a clean finish. | Spike heads remain visible along the front of the gutter. |
| Installation | Installers typically use a drill to secure hangers with screws. | Installers typically use a hammer to drive spikes through the gutter. |
| Maintenance | Secure screw connections can reduce the need for future adjustments. | If gutter spikes loosen over time, installers may need to secure or replace them. |
For gutter contractors and roofing professionals, hidden gutter hangers offer a secure, concealed mounting option that helps maintain gutter alignment and reduces the risk of loose fasteners over time.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hidden Gutter Hangers
What is a hidden gutter hanger?
A hidden gutter hanger is a metal bracket that supports a rain gutter while keeping its mounting hardware out of sight. Most styles sit inside the gutter and use screws or another fastening method to attach it to the building.
How far apart should hidden gutter hangers be installed?
Hanger spacing depends on the gutter size, mounting surface, and expected loads. Installations exposed to heavy snow or ice may need closer spacing for added support. Follow the hanger manufacturer's recommendations and applicable building requirements to determine the correct spacing.
What is the difference between hidden gutter hangers with and without clips?
Hidden hangers with clips attach to the back edge of the gutter for added support. Hangers without clips use a different connection design. The best choice depends on the gutter profile and installation method.
Can hidden gutter hangers be used on commercial buildings?
Yes. Gutterworks offers commercial hidden gutter hangers for larger systems, including 7-inch and 8-inch gutters. Select a hanger that fits your gutter's size and material and provides the support your installation needs.
Can I install gutters without a fascia board?
Roof-mounted hangers provide another way to secure gutters when a building lacks a suitable fascia board. Roof straps and T-bar hangers may provide an alternative to gutter hangers, depending on the roof structure and installation requirements.
What materials are Gutterworks hidden gutter hangers made of?
Gutterworks carries hidden gutter hangers in several materials, including aluminum, galvanized steel, and stainless steel. Material options vary by hanger size and style, so check individual product specifications before ordering.
