Advantages to Cable Railings
Here are some reasons why cable railings are preferred:
1. Aesthetic appeal: Cable railings offer a clean and contemporary appearance that complements modern architectural styles. The thin, unobtrusive cables provide an open and visually appealing view, making them an excellent option for decks, balconies, and staircases.
2. Durability: High-quality stainless steel cables used in cable railings are corrosion-resistant and weather-resistant. This durability ensures that the railings remain in good condition even in harsh environmental conditions, reducing maintenance requirements and increasing their lifespan.
3. Enhanced views: Traditional railing systems with vertical balusters or spindles can obstruct views, especially in scenic areas. Cable railings allow for unobstructed views, making them particularly suitable for waterfront properties, mountain retreats, and other picturesque locations.
4. Safety: Cable railings meet safety standards and building codes when properly installed. The cables are tensioned securely, preventing them from sagging or swaying excessively. This ensures that the railing provides a safe barrier without compromising on aesthetics.
5. Low maintenance: Compared to traditional wood or metal railing systems, cable railings generally require less maintenance. There are no intricate designs or small parts that can accumulate dirt and debris. Occasional cleaning of the cables and posts is usually enough to keep them in good condition.
6. Versatility: Cable railings can be used in various applications, such as residential decks, commercial properties, public spaces, and interior staircases. They can be adapted to different styles and environments, making them a versatile choice for many settings.
7. Space optimization: Cable railings take up less visual space compared to solid railing systems, making them suitable for areas where space is limited or where a light and airy feel is desired.
8. Building code compliance: Cable railings are designed to meet building codes and safety regulations. However, it’s crucial to ensure proper installation and adherence to local building codes to ensure compliance and safety.
Natural Connection of Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
The sleek, streamlined appearance of cable railing allows the natural flow of spaces, creating an appealing continuity that’s not easy to achieve with other railing forms. While glass may seem like a good option, it needs cleaning and other maintenance that isn’t needed with our cable systems. We recommend cable railing for terraces, as it maximizes the view, which is vital when creating a lasting impression from the moment the customer walks through your doors. Most barriers tend to break up spaces, but cable railing connects them without taking up space.
