Downspout hinges are a great addition to many gutter systems. They help prevent the vital extension from blowing off in the wind leading to foundation issues and water in the basement. They are also very convenient when mowing and doing yard work. There is no need to remove the extension risking loss or damage, simply lift it up. Most hinges come with fasteners that are made of plastic, velcro or flimsy aluminum. They don’t last and many wear out just from being exposed to the elements. The TDL Downspout Extension Retention Clip paired with a rugged powder coated steel hinge by Front Street Mfg. is the strongest, longest lasting device of its kind. This device will keep your extension in the up position until you are ready to lower it. Even on very windy days. Perfect for when the kids or grandkids (or grandparents) are playing in the yard! It is very durable and easy to install. Designed to be used with 2”x3” and 3”x4” aluminum or steel downspouts. Includes 1 hinge, 1 clip, 7 screws and 1 washer.  Patented.
 
Hinges are made of .040 Galvanized steel then covered with a durable baked on powder coated finish.
 
Clips are stainless steel with N52 neodymium clip.
