Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Gravel guard selection comes down to matching the profile and leg depth to the edge condition: deeper 1/2 in. legs suit larger gravel stops and higher wind exposures, while 1/8 in. and 1/4 in. legs fit tighter fascia details. The zinc-aluminum finish over galvanized steel holds up well on exposed edge metal, and the color options let you blend the guard with the fascia or membrane. Verify fastening spacing against local wind requirements before ordering pieces.

Cut metal edges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when handling and fastening edge metal.
