Stainless Cable Railings “Ladder Effect”

Safety is at the top of the list when it comes to stainless cable railings and raised decks. While most municipalities have adapted to the popularity of cable railing systems, some questions still arise. What is the truth about climbable railings? Do horizontal railing members allow children to climb?

Wood Framed Cable Railing

Wood framed cable railing systems are the most cost effective way to construct a stainless steel cable railing. Wood timbers provide a warm feel, and offer the beauty of a natural and sustainable building material. Combined with the durability and clean lines of stainless steel cable, wooden cable railings are a great option for cable fencing as well. All of our wood framing members come from local US vendors that utilize sustainable harvesting practices. Cedar, Redwood, and Ipe Hardwood, are all great choices for wood framed cable railing and fencing. These woods contain acids that make them naturally resistant to rot and termites. Wood timbers can be stained, painted, or left untreated to weather naturally. Re-sawn timbers provide a rustic appearance and feel while smooth timbers appear more contemporary and linear. Rough textures will hold products like penetrating oils and paint much longer than smooth finishes. High quality finishes will extend the life of your wood framing and keep them looking beautiful for the long term. At San Diego Cable Railings we provide complete railing kits that utilize pre made wooden posts, Pre made wooden railing posts come pre drilled and we also offer pre finished. We include fasteners and mounting hardware as well as the DIY cable assemblies for a complete railing package.

Pre drilled holes provide accuracy and pre finished materials will eliminate messes and cleanup time on the job.

Stainless Cable Fencing

Stainless Cable Fencing Cable fencing is a perfect choice for coastal and landscape settings. Our  pre made cable railing posts and cable railing kits are extremely popular as fencing options for landscaping applications. They work great for keeping pets and children in while keeping critters or predators out. Unobstructed views and no glass to clean!! Stainless cable fencing posts can be set in concrete footings, mounted to wood framing, or bolted to masonry walls and concrete slabs. Even at close range cable fences can become invisible and disappear into existing landscapes. Transparency is the number one choice for customers constructing fences with stainless steel cable. Stainless wire easily dies into soft scape designs and coastal backdrops. With no glass to clean, cable fences are a lower cost and durable alternative to glass fences and railings. Color and material selection is key when it comes to creating a transparent barrier fence. Neutrals and gray tones seem to be the most popular colors for cable fencing projects. Both light and dark colors can be utilized depending on the setting and usage. Typically a muted finish with colors that exist in the natural backdrop will provide the best results for a transparent barrier.
