How to Install Cable Deck Railing: A Step-by-Step Guide

Installing cable deck railing can seem daunting, but with the right tools and instructions, it’s a project that can be tackled by most DIY enthusiasts. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to ensure your deck not only looks great but is also safe and secure.

Preparation and Planning
Before you begin, it’s important to gather all necessary materials and tools. Ultra Modern Rails offers comprehensive kits that include everything you need, from posts to cables and tensioning devices. Ensure that you have measured your deck accurately and have a clear plan in place.

Step 1: Post Installation
Start by installing the posts, which will serve as the foundation of your railing. Depending on your design, these can be mounted on the top or side of your deck. Make sure the posts are securely fastened and level.

Step 2: Installing the Cables
Once the posts are in place, thread the cables through the pre-drilled holes. It’s essential to maintain consistent spacing to ensure the railing is both aesthetically pleasing and compliant with safety codes.

Step 3: Tensioning the Cables
Use the included tensioning devices to ensure the cables are taut. This step is crucial for the safety and durability of your railing system.
