A new half round gutter hanger provides a stronger product and maintains circles that are interchangeable with existing shanks installed on structures. A double thickness center section has four precise holes located on an engagement surface that is more than two times larger than the prior plate. Extrusions extending from around the through-holes in the circles fit tightly in holes in the double thickness mounting extensions of the plates. A fastener inserted through a single one of the holes holds the circle supported on the plate. Engaging the rolled lip with both end hooks of a U-shaped wire spring extending from the closed slot in the opposite end completes the installation.
1. An eaves trough gutter mounting plate apparatus, comprising a central folded double wall mounting protrusion with through-holes extending through the protrusion and having end portions extending outward from the protrusion forming mounting flanges on either side of the protrusion, the mounting flanges having mounting openings for receiving fasteners extending through the openings into a facia board under a soffit of a building, further comprising a shaped gutter support having a first inner end with a hook for engaging an inner edge of a gutter, and extensions extending laterally from the support for at least partially fitting within the through-holes in the protrusion of the gutter mounting plate.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the shaped gutter support has through openings, and wherein the extensions extend laterally from the shaped gutter support and axially from edges of the through openings in the shaped gutter support near the hook for fitting within the through-holes in the protrusion.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising a closed slot at a second outer end of the hanger remote from the hook for receiving a spring with a spring hook in the closed slot for engaging an outer lip of the trough gutter.
4. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the extensions fit within a channel of a roof-mounting strap.
5. An eaves trough gutter mounting apparatus, comprising a shaped gutter support having a first inner end with a hook for engaging an inner edge of a gutter, and extensions extending laterally from the support for at least partially fitting within through-holes in a mounting protrusion of a hanger mounting plate, further comprising an eaves trough gutter mounting plate having a central folded double wall mounting protrusion with through-holes extending through the protrusion and having end portions extending outward from the central mounting protrusion forming mounting flanges on either side of the protrusion, the mounting flanges having mounting openings for receiving fasteners extending through the openings into a facia board under a soffit of a building.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the shaped gutter support has through openings, and wherein the extensions extend laterally from the shaped gutter support and axially from edges of the through openings in the shaped gutter support near the hook for fitting within the through-holes in the hanger-mounting plate.
7. The apparatus of claim 5 , further comprising a closed slot at a second outer end of the hanger remote from the hook for receiving a spring with a spring hook in the closed slot for engaging an outer lip of the trough gutter.
8. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the extensions fit within a channel of a roof-mounting strap.
9. An eaves trough gutter mounting method, comprising the steps of: providing an eaves trough gutter mounting plate, providing a central folded double wall mounting protrusion, providing through-holes extending through the protrusion, providing end portions extending outward from the central mounting protrusion forming mounting flanges on either side of the protrusion, and providing mounting openings in the mounting flanges receiving fasteners extending through the openings into a facia board under a soffit of a building, further comprising providing a shaped gutter support, providing a first inner end of the support with a hook for engaging an inner edge of a gutter, providing extensions extending laterally from a wall of the support, and at least partially fitting the extensions within the through-holes in the mounting protrusion of the hanger mounting plate.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising providing the shaped gutter support with through openings, and extending the extensions laterally from the shaped gutter support and axially from edges of the through openings in the shaped gutter support near the hook, and fitting within the through-holes in the hanger-mounting truss.
11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising providing a closed slot at second outer end of the hanger remote from the hook for receiving a spring providing a spring hook in the closed slot for engaging an outer lip of the trough gutter.
12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising fitting the extensions within a channel of a roof-mounting strap.
