Aluminum posts and handrail are the perfect solutions for a cable railing project. We produce custom made posts and handrail for your project. The structure of an aluminum railing with stainless steel cable is usually composed of :

• Aluminum end posts
• Aluminum intermediate posts (installed at every 4’)
• Aluminum or wood handrail (we do not supply wood handrail)
• Stainless steel tensioning system
• Stainless steel wire rope

The top handrail maintains the integrity of the structure and must be installed before tensioning the cables. Depending on the desired design, the handrail can be made of metal or wood (we do not provide wooden handrails). Our 2'' x 1'' handrail matches perfectly with our 1½’’ x 1½’’ aluminum posts which are equipped with brackets to fix the handrail by screwing from below.
