Abstract: An adjustable gutter guard system includes a first water management component, a second water management component, and a screen. The first water management component includes a first main body section and a front receiver section. The second water management component is slideably arranged relative to the first water management component to adjust the width of the adjustable gutter guard system. The second water management component includes a second main body section and a rear receiver section. The screen is positioned in contact with the first main body section and the second main body section. Both the first main body section and the second main body section include a longitudinal body, a plurality of passageways through the longitudinal body, and at least one wall extending from a top surface of the longitudinal body.

Abstract: A front receiver for use as an interchangeable component with a modular platform for a gutter guard system is disclosed herein. One such front receiver is arranged for use with a gutter guard system that includes a main body, the front receiver includes a main section; an extension section extending at an angle from a front edge of the main section; a first leg; a second leg; and a drip edge. The main section includes the front edge, a rear edge, a top surface, and a bottom surface. The first leg extends generally perpendicularly away from the bottom surface of the main section. The second leg extends generally perpendicularly away from the first leg toward the rear edge of the main section. The drip edge extends perpendicularly from the second leg.

Abstract: A clip for use with a gutter guard system is disclosed and claimed herein. In one embodiment, a clip includes a first wall, a second wall arranged generally parallel and spaced apart from the first wall, a first slot defined by the first wall and the second wall, a third wall, a fourth wall spaced apart from the third wall, and a second slot defined by the third wall and the fourth wall. The first slot is arranged to removably secure the clip to a rear receiver of a gutter guard system, and the second slot is arranged to removably secure the clip to a gutter.

Abstract: A modular platform for configuring gutter guard systems is disclosed and claimed herein. The modular platform includes a number of interchangeable components that can be assembled to form a gutter guard system for use with specific rain gutters based on a rain gutter's style, size, color, and attachment mechanism used to secure the rain gutter to a structure and/or roofline. One such interchangeable component is a main body with securing features. The securing features of the main body can be positioned and arranged such that when two main bodies are appropriately positioned, the securing features engage in a manner that secures the two main bodies together into a continuous main body assembly. The securing features can be, tabs and slots that cooperate to form a friction fit or a series of hooks and aperture edges to capture the hooks to secure the two main bodies together.

Abstract: The current disclosure describes components, systems, and methods for assessing the size and style of rain gutters. One embodiment is a kit that includes an extension rod and a plurality of measurement templates. The extension rod includes a pivotable head and a magnet. Each of the plurality of measurement templates includes a body and at least one metal component. The body of each measurement template is arranged such that it conforms to the inside or outside dimensions or contours of a rain gutter. The measurement templates are arranges to physically engage with rain gutters when assessing rain gutters. The measurement templates can assess K-style, half-round style, and fascia style rain gutters.

The first slot is arranged to removably secure the clip to a rear receiver of a gutter guard system, and the second slot is arranged to removably secure the clip to a gutter.

Abstract: In one embodiment of a bracket for use with a gutter guard system, the bracket includes a first wall; a second wall arranged generally parallel and spaced apart from the first wall; a slot at least partially defined by the first wall and the second wall; and a third wall. The third wall includes a first portion extending from a first end of the second wall at an approximately fifty-five degree angle relative to the second wall; a second portion extending at an approximately one hundred twenty-one degree angle relative to the first portion; and a third portion extending at an approximately one hundred fifty degree angle relative to the second portion. A fourth wall connecting a first end of the first wall and the second wall can further define the slot. The slot is arranged to removably secure the bracket to a rear receiver of the gutter guard system.
