CableRail Standard Cable Assemblies are an attractive, affordable, low maintenance and easy-to-install railing infill option for homes and offices with a view. Our standard, prefabricated assemblies are made from 1/8" diameter, high strength, weather-tough, type 316 stainless steel cable and are designed to replace commonly used metal or wood railing pickets. The assemblies are laced horizontally through holes drilled in the intermediate posts of your railing frame and then tensioned at opposite end posts with special Quick-Connect® SS fittings. The result is railing infill that is not only extremely durable and attractive but virtually invisible, allowing beautiful, unimpaired views.

The prefabricated assemblies are sold in standard lengths that can be trimmed to a finished dimension in the field. Assemblies may be installed on new or existing wood frames in exterior, interior, residential and commercial settings. They're also an ideal choice for fences and trellises. Please note that CableRail standard assemblies should never be used for lifting, hanging or other high-load applications.

All 6300 Series assemblies come with colored end caps. Select your desired cap colors from the drop-down menu above.

• Carefully plan the location of all end and corner posts to allow for proper clearance from walls and to maximize cable run lengths.
• To ensure proper tensioning, straight runs of cable (no turns, dips or rises) should not exceed an 70 ft assembly.
• Cable runs that do have corner bends or dips should not exceed a 40 ft assembly and should not have more than 2 corners or bends per run.
• End and corner posts (the cable load bearing posts) must be of the recommended minimum sizes noted in the frame requirements & details pages.
• All posts/verticals should be spaced a maximum of 3 feet apart.
• Cables should be spaced a maximum of 3 inches apart.
• All posts must be securely fastened to the cap rails and to the deck joists/structure.
