What are Cable Railings?

Whether you call them wire railings, metal railings, wire handrails, or cable handrails, cable railings are a type of barrier or fencing system that utilizes metal wires or cables, stretched horizontally or vertically, as the primary means of preventing passage. These railings are often used in both residential and commercial settings, including decks, balconies, staircases, and walkways, but we specialize in residential applications. Here are some key aspects of cable railings:

1Components:

The typical system consists of posts (which can be made of metal, wood, or composite materials), handrails, and the cables themselves. The cables are usually made of stainless steel for its strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion.

2Design and Aesthetics:

Cable railings are popular for their sleek, modern appearance, which offers minimal visual obstruction. This makes them an excellent choice for locations with scenic views, such as overlooks, waterfront properties, and mountain homes. Their design versatility allows them to fit well with a variety of architectural styles.

3Safety and Regulations:

Despite their slender appearance, when properly installed, wire railings systems are strong and meet safety codes and regulations. However, the specific requirements can vary by jurisdiction, so it’s important to be aware of local building codes. This may include regulations on the maximum spacing between cables, minimum railing heights, and the tension of the cables to prevent them from being a climbable feature, especially in settings where child safety is a concern.

4Installation and Maintenance:

Installation of cable railings can be more complex than traditional railing systems due to the need for precise tensioning of the cables and compliance with safety standards. That’s why it’s so important to work with cable railing companies like Cregger who are specialists in this unique field. Regular maintenance includes checking and adjusting the tension of the cables and cleaning to prevent corrosion, especially in salty or humid environments.

5Cost:

The cost can vary widely based on materials, design complexity, and installation requirements. They can be more expensive than some traditional railing types due to the materials used and the specialized installation process.

Cable railings combine functionality with a modern aesthetic, making them a preferred choice for enhancing views while ensuring safety and compliance with building standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Homeowners commonly ask these questions about wire railings.
Can they be used inside and outside?
Yes. Exterior uses include cable railings for decks, balconies, and outdoor stairs. Indoors, we typically install them on stairways, landings, lofts, and elevated walkways.
Are metal railings expensive to install?
There is more labor involved, and the components are higher-end than typical builder-grade stairways or deck railings, but there’s no comparison for aesthetics and functionality. From a value standpoint, therefore, they are not more expensive than the basic alternatives. Request a free quote for more detail.
Can I install them myself?
Although there are kits available on the market, we don’t recommend a DIY approach for homeowners. In fact, most general contractors don’t even do the work themselves and instead subcontract the work to cable railing companies like us. Referrals and subcontracts from other contractors are one of our main sources of business.
