I had Leaf Filter install on a portion of my gutters last year. At the price they were charging, even after haggling with them, it was too much to do the whole house. Art of Gutters had the closest I found that looked very well engineered, well built, and easy to install. Art's guards are made out of Aluminum, LF is made out of plastic now. Both mount the same way. I placed an order on a Sunday for both 5" and 6" gutter covers. A sale rep followed up on Monday to verify that I needed both sizes as 99% of the houses all have 1 size. I explained I did both sizes. he said ok, they would proceed with my order, it would shipped that day. My order arrived on Wednesday. in todays shipping from NJ to the coast on NC in 2 days was impressive. Instrutions were easy to read and used friendly to follow. they provided plenty of self tapping screws to install. They even have some overlapping screen material to provide coverage at the joints. The stainless steel screen will last a lifetime. Just work from left to right as the instructions state. Easy installation. I installed 170' in about 2.5 hours. I had to cut 6 outside corners and 4 inside corners. I was not intimidated at all. This company seems to bring back some old school customer service doing things the right way. They followed up, was true to their word on shipping. Review: Excellent product well designed and manufactured - I was tired of having to constantly clean my gutters even going so far this year of hiring a company to come and preform the service. I have a 2-story house with the gutters on one side being over 24 ft from the ground. This sent me down the rabbit hole to find a solution. I watched a lot of YouTube and searched desertcart looking at reviews. One of the reviews I read was from an engineering discussion the pro and cons of various systems. I too am an engineer so I evaluate and research most purchases with an eye for design, durability and function. I made the investment of time and cost as I purchased several samples to evaluate on my own. I am in Texas and I have Arizona Ash trees that put out a ton of seedpods in the fall and another tree with small leaves. If I had known what I know now I would have gotten rid of the Arizona Ash trees when they were small, but it is too late for that now. In addition, since I am in Texas I do not have to deal with ice dams so take that into consideration. Regardless, all of this debris ends up in my gutters clogging the downspouts which have to be cleaned by spring when the rains come. After evaluating the samples I got, by putting them on a low section of gutters using the leaves and seedpods with a water hose my conclusion was the Waterlock DIY system from Art of Gutters was the best for my situation. I will emphasize this there are multiple systems out there, plus several companies trying to sell you stuff. You need evaluate your roof pitch, gutters and tree foliage to determine the best solution. A great reference is the YouTube channel called “Gutter Guards Direct” the guy does a great job of explaining each system and conducts real world tests on his own house. One point made in the videos is that no matter how good the design is, if the installation of the gutters and the gutter guards are not correct your experience will be greatly affected. I 100% agree with this. I did contact a few gutter companies and costs were above what I intended, plus I knew I could at least do as good or better as anyone else. On to my experience, with Waterlock DIY. • Overall, the design and construction are excellent. The Aluminum is a good gauge and micro mesh was the right size for me. I have 5-inch gutters. • The DIY version was easy to install and comes with self-driving screws that match the color. • Depending on your gutters you will have to make some modification as needed to get every section to fit. I did as you will discovery most gutters are poorly installed and you will have to work around those issues. I would suggest getting a good pair of straight cut tin snips. Plus, gloves not to thick so you can feel the screws. I use red Milwaukee gloves exclusively and they worked great. • Because of my need to prevent anything from getting in my gutters I made a few modifications. I intentionally increased the overlap between each section to 1/2 inch by cutting this back before install. Then I would use a couple of screws to secure the overlap between sections. • On exterior corners I would cut off the micro mesh from drop pieces and make a cover to fill gaps at the 45 and hold down with screws. • At the start and end of runs I would make an overlap and screw down the straight edge this way nothing can get under the ends. Be aware this will leave exposed screws but no one really notices from the ground plus my goal is to keep stuff out of the gutters. • Finally, and most important, work as safely as possible. I purchased a ladder stabilizer (Werner), No Bull end caps for the stabilizer, I recommend both. I had a helper with me most of the time and I worked slowly and intentionally. Take your time and you will get the job done. Last comment: The gutter guards have been on a few weeks and so far the results are good. We have had a few rains, no noticeable overrun of water and the leave once dry just blow off. ## Features - Stainless steel micro-mesh blocks leaves, pine needles and roof grit from entering your gutter. - Heavy (Industrial) Gauge .019 100% Aluminum will not rust - Lifetime-Warranty - water lock DIY Do-It-Yourself Installation...No special skills necessary.... - Water lock DIY Easy to install on any Designed 5" wide gutter and won't void your roof warranty. - Designed, Assembled and Packaged in the USA.

Fit gutters easily, very simple installation and quick installation. I installed about 230 ft, with 2 inside corners, and 12 outside corners. I didn't check, but I estimate 10 - 12 hrs to install. Straight runs go very quick. Outside corners take much more time. ## Frequently Bought Together - Waterlock DIY 5”Leaf Protection|Sample|Stainless Steel mesh|White Aluminum Gutter Covers|Contractor Grade|Gutter Guard from Manufacturer|Made in The USA - Raptor Gutter Guard Stainless Steel Micro-Mesh Sample Pack (Does not Include Full Length Sections) - Waterlock Micromesh 5 inch Gutter Guards Leaf Protection, 1 Feet Sample Pack White, Sta inless Steel Mesh, Aluminum Gutter Covers, Contractor Grade Gutter Guard from Manufacturer --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/513342825-diy-gutter-guards-5-inch-sample-stainless-mesh-white](https://www.desertcart.de/products/513342825-diy-gutter-guards-5-inch-sample-stainless-mesh-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
