The bracket is screwed to the fascia board using two countersunk screws (we recommend 5 x 25mm or 5 x 30mm). The gutter is then clipped in place by first sliding the back edge in under the rear clip and pulling gently down on the front edge to clip the gutter into position. Square gutter fascia brackets should be spaced at 1m centres, although if you live in an area that is prone to heavy snowfall we suggest reducing the centres to 800mm. This brown 114mm square fascia bracket from FloPlast supports square guttering by fixing it to fascia boards. Designed for high-capacity drainage systems, it ensures stable positioning along the eaves.
