Amerimax 85280BX Galvanized Hinged Gutter Guard

Product Description

The AMERIMAX 85280BX is a galvanized steel hinged gutter guard designed to keep gutters clear of debris while standing up to the weight of ice and snow. Each section measures 6 inches wide by 3 feet long and features a convex profile that sheds leaves and debris rather than allowing them to collect on the surface. The guard installs using two integrated one-piece stainless steel hinges included with each section, making fitment straightforward without special tools. This product is suited for residential gutter maintenance work performed by roofing contractors, gutter specialists, and experienced maintenance trades.

The 85280BX is used on standard residential gutters where debris buildup and ice loading are recurring service issues. The hinged design allows the guard to be positioned and secured without cutting or bending additional hardware. Its galvanized construction resists corrosion in wet environments, making it appropriate for regions with heavy rainfall or snow accumulation. The smooth edge profile also reduces the risk of injury during handling and installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by roofing or gutter contractors working from a ladder or roof edge. Secure all ladders and follow applicable fall-protection practices before beginning work. The hinged design allows each section to be set into the gutter and fastened without cutting. Inspect existing gutter hangers and fascia for structural integrity before installing guards.
