Cable railing is all about aesthetics. On decks that overlook attractive landscapes, customers are often looking for guardrail systems that won't block the view.
There are a range of cable railing systems available, with each manufacturer offering unique choices in posts, rails, and hardware. The slide show at left provides a quick introduction to some of the choices. If you've installed cable rail on any recent projects, tell us about your experience in the comments section below.
