A recent project photo displays the versatility of cable railing products with an installation of a beautiful craftsman cable railing. Typically associated with more contemporary or modern designs, cable railings can be modified and constructed in many ways with a variety of finish options to suit any style. The owners of this craftsman beach home in North San Diego have meticulously remodeled and manicured their home to perfection. We love the color scheme and style as well as the opportunity to furnish San Diego Cable Railings on such a beautiful home. With beautiful ocean views from multiple decks; heavy timber picket rails were not the right choice to maximize the outdoor living space. Cable railings were selected by the owners for the transparency and clean lines. Stainless steel railing posts with powder coat and type 316 stainless cable were utilized for corrosion resistance. Kudos to the installation team at SD Independent Construction for their attention to detail and quality construction practices. These guys are outdoor construction specialists with over a decade of producing quality decks, fences, and railings. Color selection and railing materials were chosen carefully by the homeowners and they really nailed it with the entire color pallet on this craftsman beach home. The muted post color and natural hardwood top railings softened the look of the linear stainless cables and the entire design really flows. Many of our customers construct cable railings and stainless cable fencing for a modern twist on an older home. Preserve your view and protect your family and pets with a durable and attractive railing system that will survive the test of time.
