Modern Cable Railing System – Sleek, Open & Built for Strength
Upgrade your space with our metal cable railing system, designed to deliver a clean modern look with maximum safety. This pre-assembled guardrail pairs a strong steel frame with 3/16" stainless steel cables, creating an open minimalist design for indoor and outdoor applications.
Unlike traditional railings, cable infill gives you unobstructed views, which is the whole point on a deck, balcony or staircase with something worth looking at.

Before You Choose Cable
Cable railing looks superb and preserves a view better than anything else. Two honest caveats:
Cables need re-tensioning. Steel expands and contracts with temperature, so expect to tighten them once or twice in the first year before they settle. Compliance depends on it — a slack cable can open a gap wider than 4".
Installation takes longer. Each cable is tensioned individually. Most homeowners report it takes about twice as long as a horizontal bar system.
If you want the modern look with zero maintenance, our horizontal bar guardrail is the easier install. Full comparison in cable vs horizontal bar.
