Collection: Horizontal Cable Railing

Cable Railing Infill options such as Horizontal Cable must be paired with structurally approved posts. Some systems work with wood posts, others require posts of the same rail and collection to work with. For more details or for a custom quote, please reach out to us by phone or email.

Horizontal cable railing achieves the "look" of horizontal rail, with an open view and inviting tone. Please sort by Brand, and see horizontal cable collection groupings toward the bottom.

  • Horzontal cable railings use marine grade 316-type stainless steel and durable powder-coated cable-rated aluminum railings and cable posts.
  • Exterior Horizontal Wire Cable Rail Systems are built to endure the extremes of the outdoors and still look new. 
  • Cable or wire railing offers sleek lines with cable's minimalist design to create a sense of openness while maintaining safety and security with the strength of the cable and code-compliant cable spacing.
  • Horizontal Wire Railing is contemporary, practical, and looks great with minimal upkeep. The design of the railing cable systems lends to methodic and tested installations for cable rail builders and is the perfect choice for discerning homeowners who appreciate both aesthetics and lasting performance.

Cable Standout - Feeney Inc.

Feeney Inc. is our preferred and most trusted cable railing brand, known for their superior quality and exceptional service. This dedication to excellence mirrors our own commitment to providing our customers with the best possible experience, from product selection to personalized support.

Why Horizontal Cable Rail is the Smart Choice

There's a reason why architects, contractors, and discerning homeowners keep coming back to modern cable railing systems. It's not just about following trends, but choosing a solution that delivers on multiple fronts:

  • Unobstructed Views That Take Your Breath Away: Traditional balusters can chop up your view like prison bars. With horizontal cable systems using sleek 1/8-inch cables, you get the safety barrier you need without sacrificing those panoramic views you paid good money to enjoy. Whether you're overlooking a lake, mountains, or your meticulously landscaped backyard, nothing should come between you and that view.
  • Built to Last Through Everything Mother Nature Throws at It: We're talking about stainless cable rail systems crafted from marine-grade 316 stainless steel here. This isn't the stuff that rusts out after a few harsh winters. These cables and cable rail posts are engineered to handle coastal salt spray, mountain snow loads, and desert heat without breaking a sweat. Your investment stays looking sharp year after year.
  • Maintenance That Won't Eat Up Your Weekends: Nobody wants to spend every weekend staining, painting, or replacing railing components. With tension cable railing systems, you're looking at an occasional rinse with the garden hose and maybe a quick wipe-down. That's it. More time enjoying your deck, less time maintaining it.

Know Your Cable Railing Options

Not all horizontal cable systems are the same, and choosing the right one makes all the difference in both performance and aesthetics:

Modern vs. Classic Styles

  • Modern Systems: Clean, minimalist designs with no bottom rail for maximum openness
  • Classic Systems: Traditional approach with both top and bottom rails for a more structured look
  • Elevation Series: Premium powder-coated aluminum components with superior weather resistance

Key Components That Make the Difference

  • Cable Rail Posts: Available in various mounting styles (surface mount, through-post, angle posts)
  • Top Rails: Series 150 and Series 250 options with different load capacities
  • Tensioning Hardware: Marine-grade stainless steel fittings that maintain proper cable tension
  • End Terminations: Clean finishing details that complete the professional appearance
Installation Considerations Every Pro Knows

Installation Considerations Every Pro Knows

Here's what separates successful cable railing projects from the headaches we hear about:

  • Stick with One Brand: Mixing components from different manufacturers might save a few bucks upfront, but it often leads to compatibility issues, voided warranties, and frustrated customers. We've seen it happen too many times.
  • Plan Your Post Spacing Carefully: Cable railing systems have specific maximum spans between posts. Exceed these limits, and you'll end up with sagging cables that look unprofessional and may not meet code requirements.
  • Consider Your Local Codes: While most residential applications use 36-inch heights, commercial projects and some local jurisdictions may require 42-inch systems. Know before you order.

We've built relationships with the industry's most reliable manufacturers, particularly Feeney Inc., whose DesignRail systems consistently deliver on quality and performance. When you're putting your reputation on the line with every project, you need suppliers who understand that "good enough" isn't good enough.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequent questions asked regarding Horizontal Cable Railing
Railing, as in Guard or Guardrail can be paired with Horizontal Cable infill, Top Rail, and rated Posts to create elegant horizontally strung cable railing.
The short answer, Yes. It is more expensive than other methods of rail infill. This is because of the quality needed for the stainless steel cable and cable components.
Yes, you can, and we even ship larger orders for free! Some systems are more comlicated than others, so for your first purchase in a particular collection, it is best to call, text, or email us at: 1-913-884-3335 | sales@deckandrailsupply.com
No, not all cable or cable systems are the same. Systems designed for exterior applications require 316-type stainless steel wire and fittings. Many inexpensive cable systems are not rated for exteriors and will fail under harsh environmental conditions. All of the systems we sell are rated and use the highest quality constructed materials.
Yes, of course, a kid could scale horizontal cable railing, or really any kind of 36" railing. Most code authorities do not recognize the "ladder effect" issue. Furthermore, we have yet to have a code department reject or fail a project for using Horizontal Cable.
