Building a Strong Frame

Feeney CableRail is a beautiful option to consider for a custom fabricated metal railing frame. Check out our tips for designing a strong railing frame that uses cables efficiently.


1. Select Your Corner Type

 

Double corner posts allow cables to either run continuously through a corner, requiring fewer fittings, or to easily terminate.

 

Single corner posts are also an option and typically require the cables to terminate at the corner. (To use a single corner with CableRail Kits or CableRail Conceal Kits, one run will be offset by 1/2-in.)

2. Design Top and Bottom Rail

Always include a strong, rigid, securely fastened top rail to provide necessary strength to the frame and help support the cable tension loads. Underneath the top rail, attach a minimum 1″ x 4″ wood blocking between posts to provide additional lateral reinforcement to the posts.

Bottom rails (optional) add rigidity to railing and can be an attractive and functional foot-rest addition to railing designs.

 

3. Aluminum Pickets

Slender intermediate pickets may be used instead of some bulkier intermediate posts to achieve a more open railing design while maintaining proper cable spacing.
