Abstract
A gutter protector is provided that has a top surface defining a front edge and a back edge. The protector also has a first side extending from the front edge to the back edge and extending at an angle α from the top surface and having a gutter contacting first edge, a second side extending from the front edge to the back edge and extending at an angle β from the top surface and having a gutter contacting second edge. A notch is provided in the front edge adapted to engage a complementary notch in an article to couple the gutter protector to the article, thereby allowing protectors to be engaged and pushed collectively down a gutter course to facilitate installation.
