- In this video I will show the full process of how to install a cable railing with components that I purchased on Amazon. Sorry about the light quality but you get what you get.
Detailed and clear tutorial!
Great video! Simple straightforward from start to finish!
Yea, there was nothing out there that kinda went through the whole process at the time I made the video.
Since installing the cables have you had to go back and tighten any of the connections?
@@lawnman1734 typically not. Especially if it is a span shorter than 10 feet. I have some spans of 50 feet and I haven’t had to tighten. That said, if the post is wood and warps that may lead to some sagging.
@@moomtaz1 my project is my pool deck. The longer span is 32 ft.
Thanks for the excellent start to finish process …really helps to see it done that way!!
Can you tell us what kind of cable rail system you used or send a link?
Thanks a lot
Glad you liked the video. I purchased everything on Amazon. Here are the links:

Hi there. Great job especially making seems pretty easy. But say ur doing this as ur profession, how much would u charge, measurement and all? Plz and thanks in advance😊
No clue. I’m a lawyer by trade. You don’t want those prices, lol
Good
Is the number 12 crimping tool for 3/16” cable?
Good job on crimping, many videos show only one being used. Two crimps, with 90* between each are the proper way.
Yours is one of the only videos to show checking to make sure you have a few threads showing…before you crimp, then discover you’ve wasted cable & a fitting.
People, save time & aggravation, get a proper cable cutter. Look around, you can buy the hydraulic crimper, with cable cutter for about $5 more than just the crimper.
Lastly, use duckbill vice grips, or two scraps of hardwood with regular vice grips, so you don’t mark the cable. Jump Outdoors cable resisted twisting, cause he used a smaller hole & drove the fitting into the post, yours might turn easily.
All great points and good advice all around. Thanks for contributing!
And to your last point, yea it was a two way consideration. Do I make the hole smaller to resist twisting but make it harder to insert or do I make the hole bigger and get the opposite? I chose the former and I’m glad I did.
I bought the adjustable end bolts for 4 inch posts. Any reason for using a shorter adjustable bolt for your 4x4 posts ?
I don’t remember. I think they may have been cheaper
@@moomtaz1 just out of curiosity, what state are you in? I’m in Michigan.
@@lawnman1734 Illinois. Until I retire and get my ass to a warmer climate, lol
@@moomtaz1 I’m retired but I’m staying here in Michigan
@@moomtaz1 I ordered all my materials from Amazon and received them all yesterday. 60 bolts 60 end pins 1 spool of 1000ft cable and a 500 ft spool. I’ll have some leftover after using around 1200 ft. My son is doing his deck and will use my leftover cable.
I’m sorry but I didn’t hear anything beyond the point at which you yelled at the rooster. ROTFLMBO. 😂😂😂
