Frequently Asked Questions

This is a general guide only and may not address your specific site conditions. If you are not experienced with this type of work, hire a qualified contractor.

What other components do I need with #6 Gutter Shank?

You need Half Round Circles for complete Gutter support, plus other Half Round System components like Slip Joints for connections. Consider #10 Combo Hangers or other numbered Shanks depending on your specific installation requirements.

How long should screws be for #6 Shank installation?

Screw length depends on crown molding thickness and structural requirements. Screws must penetrate through crown molding and into Fascia or rafter tails for secure attachment, which may require significant length.

Can #6 Shanks work without crown molding?

#6 Shanks are specifically designed for crown molding applications. For direct mounting without crown molding, use #10 Combo Hangers or other appropriate Half Round mounting components.

What's the difference between various numbered Shanks?

Different numbered Shanks (#3, #6, #8 F, #10, #11/#12) serve specific functions in Half Round systems. Each addresses different mounting situations, connection types, or structural requirements for complete installations.

Do I need different Shanks for White versus Brown systems?

No, the same Shank part numbers work for both White and Brown systems. Simply order the #6 Shank in the finish color that matches your Half Round Gutter System components.
