Frequently Asked Questions
When built to code, cable railing is a very safe option for railing. There are specific requirements for each aspect of the railing system, such as handrail height, the amount of pressure that the system must be able to withstand, and how far apart the posts must be spaced. In general, cable railing code requirements come from two different sources: The IRC (International Residential Code), and local, city, or state codes (for example: the California’s Guardrail Code)
Yes, all of our railing systems not only pass code, but far exceed most strength and safety requirements, including the 4” and 6” sphere rules, and all regulations for handrail or guardrail height. In fact, our post-to-post cable railing systems are certified by the International Code Council.
At Viewrail, you have three main options for buying cable railing. You can shop for Express cable railing, our most popular style and configuration (black metal posts, black metal handrail, cable infill). Since we always keep Express in stock, you can use the Express railing builder to find the parts you need and purchase them directly. They typically ship in 2 business days or less.
If you’re looking for something more custom, you can work with our designers to custom-engineer a Signature cable railing system for your style and space. This process takes a little longer, but you have much more control over the style, finishes, materials, price, and timeline of your project.
Though this is less common, you can also purchase our DriveTite cable kits, which enable you to drill cable wiring infill directly into new or existing wood posts.
Yes! Cable railing is perfect for deck projects. Cable railing is highly durable and corrosion resistant, requires very little maintenance, easy to install. At Viewrail, we offer two different infill upgrades – Onyx rod infill and Endurance rod infill – to make your deck railing look even better and last even longer.
Viewrail's Signature railing is safe for most coastal regions when using 2205 stainless steel posts, rods, and components or aluminum posts with our Endurance powder coat. Check with your Viewrail rep first on any coastal project to be sure.
Viewrail's Express system can be used outside, but not in a coastal region. It has a standard powder coat and comes with carbon steel post mounting screws. Stainless and Aluminum make contact in a salty environment a galvanic reaction occurs accelerating corrosion. As a result, it cannot be used within 10 miles of a saltwater coast.
We do not recommend DriveTite or cable infill in coastal regions.
A complete cable railing system, including posts, handrails, cable, and hardware, typically ranges between $89-$260 per linear foot. The price of cable railing will vary greatly depending on the type of material, height, number of turns, and complexity.
See our pricing page for more information.
There are a wide variety of mounting styles to choose from with our Signature and Express systems.
