What is a Beaded Box Gutter?
A Beaded Box Gutter is an architectural gutter featuring clean, straight lines with a decorative rolled bead along the front edge. The profile creates a refined appearance that complements both traditional and modern architecture while providing excellent water-carrying capacity.
