Cable Railing Installation for Southeast Michigan Homeowners
Upgrade your outdoor space with the contemporary beauty and durability of cable railing systems for clear views and clean lines.
Looking to give your deck a modern upgrade without sacrificing safety or structural integrity? Cable railing systems offer a striking solution. With their sleek horizontal or vertical stainless-steel cables and low-visibility design, these railings provide unobstructed views of your landscape while adding architectural sophistication.
For over 35 years, our team has crafted beautifully balanced outdoor spaces in Commerce Michigan, and the surrounding communities. We approach every project with expert precision and design-forward thinking. When it comes to cable rails, we bring premium materials, experienced craftsmanship, and a love for outdoor living into every detail.
What Is Cable Railing—And Why It's a Smart Choice
Cable railing systems use tensioned stainless steel cables in place of traditional spindles or balusters, creating a minimalist, open look that's as functional as it is eye-catching. These systems can be installed with wood, composite, or metal posts to complement nearly any deck style—from rustic to ultra-modern.
They're built to meet code requirements while offering a less bulky profile, allowing more light and more view. The result? A barrier that feels barely there but performs like a heavyweight.
Beyond their appearance, cable railings are highly resistant to weather and wear, making them ideal for Michigan's shifting seasons. Since they don't block the view, they're particularly popular for homes with scenic backyards, lakeside lots, or carefully landscaped gardens.
Combined with expert installation and precision tensioning, a cable rail system adds value, safety, and sophistication to your outdoor living area.
Complement Your Trex® Composite Deck
Cable railing pairs seamlessly with our most in-demand service: Trex® composite decking. Known for its low-maintenance performance and luxurious finishes, Trex decking is made from 95% recycled materials and engineered for long-term durability.
It won't rot, warp, or splinter like wood—and it never needs sanding or staining. Available in a wide range of colors and textures, Trex helps homeowners design a deck that matches their lifestyle and home aesthetic.
When installed alongside cable railing, Trex decking creates a cohesive and upscale outdoor space. The clean lines of cable rails match beautifully with the sleek, natural-grain patterns found in Trex® Transcend®, Enhance®, and Select® collections. And because both systems are resistant to weather damage and fading, they make an ideal pairing for homeowners who want lasting beauty with minimal upkeep.
How Cable Railings Compare to Other Railing Options
Choosing the right railing system can impact both the look and functionality of your deck. Here's how cable railings stack up against other popular options:
- Traditional Wood Balusters: While classic, wood balusters can obstruct views, require regular maintenance, and are more prone to rot and decay over time.
- Composite Railing Systems: These offer excellent durability and can match composite decking, but lack the open-air feel and see-through quality of cable systems.
- Glass Panel Railings: Offer great visibility but require frequent cleaning to avoid water spots and fingerprints. Glass is also more expensive and can feel heavier in design.
