How can I attach if I don’t have a gutter?

This item is specifically for attaching a rain chain to a gutter. Rain chains are generally used as a decorative replacement for a gutter downspout.

What size hole do you need to cut for installation?

A 2.5 X 3.5 inch opening is recommended. The opening should be part of the downspout. After removing the gutter, you can drop in the new part for installation.

Why does it come with two plates?

The purpose of the second plate is not clear, but often only one plate is needed for installation.

How big does the hole have to be?

The hole should be about 2 1/4 inches. The adapter comes with a reinforcing plate of the same size, which allows for an oversized hole to easily fit in.

What is the outside diameter of the tube under the plate?

The outside diameter of the tube under the plate is 4 inches.

What size bolt am I getting?

The cross bolt that holds the chain appears to be approximately 3/16ths diameter.

Can I paint the adapters to match the color of my gutter?

It is recommended to check with the company for the appropriate type of paint. Painting the metal should be possible, but confirmation from the company is advised.

Will this hold a heavy chain?

Yes, as long as the gutter is sturdy, it should be able to hold a fairly heavy chain.

Will this gutter adapter (20042) work with half-round gutters?

While the flange is flat, it may work with half-round gutters if installed properly, though a slight raised spot may be present at the drain.

What is the inside diameter of the bottom opening of this adapter?

The inside diameter of the bottom opening of the adapter measures 2 inches.

Monarch Rain Chains 20042 Black Aluminum Powder Coated Gutter Adapter Rain Chain Installation, Standard

The Rainchain Direct Gutter Adapter is a functional but basic product. It comes with two plates of varying sizes to fit different gutter openings. The hole needs to be 2 1/4in with a reinforcing plate included. The tube's outside diameter is 4 inches, and the bolt that holds the chain is 3/16th in diameter. It's made for different kinds of gutters, excluding half-round gutters. The product's primary goal is to provide a way to attach a rain chain to the gutter securely. It seems to work well, but there have been issues with the fit and the bolt's rounded tip. Customers expressed their disappointment in retailer's poor quality and inadequate instructions. Some were satisfied with their purchase, but the majority felt the product wasn't worth buying.

Pros

Simple and easy to install with sealant and reinforcing plate
Cheap compared to rain chains
Works well for heavy chains
Comes with two plates

Cons

Poor quality
Bolt tip too rounded to hold chain securely
Doesn't work well with narrow gutters
Caps are too small
No hinge links for easier shortening of chain
Doesn't fit half-round gutters
