I need a rain diverter to go on my roof over my front door.
I can't find them anywhere !! I have called all of my local roofing supply
companies, and none of them stock them. Other building supply places
don't have them.
I don't want to cut a piece of tin and stick it up there. Someone makes
these products and I believe they are sold locally, as I see them on other
houses.
Of course, I have also tried Home Depot and Lowe's, but no luck.
Anyone know of a chain that would sell this product please ??
Thanks for any tips.

FWIW, of the 50 or so of these that I have installed, I have
never bought a product that was specifically called a "Rain
diverter". We always use wall angle and install it in the
configuration needed to divert the water.
However, we do not buy it from Home Depot. I always get my
flashing from our roofing supply, where it is heavier gauge
and available in a variety of sizes and finishes.
I usually buy a colored section that is close to the roof
color and use that. Try a roofing supply.
