Vertical Cable Deck Rail Vs. Horizontal?
When choosing a cable railing for a deck, there are many options to consider, and the orientation of the infill is one of the first questions you might address.
If you like vertical deck railing styles, take into account the view. Vertical cable rails align beautifully with trees and a wooded background. If you’re lucky enough to have a water view, horizontal cable rails might be the better choice because they run parallel to the horizon.
The benefit of choosing horizontal or vertical cable railing is that they blend with your landscape and are barely visible. Remember that stainless posts are stronger than aluminum and are not quite as wide. Stainless steel railing posts can be as little as 1.5 inches square.
Whether you choose vertical cable deck railing or horizontal, purchase an all-stainless marine-grade 316 product because it provides superior corrosion resistance essential for outdoor railing installations.
Vertical Stair Cable Railing Vs. Horizontal?
For stairs, upright spindles and balusters deliver a slightly more traditional look because, for centuries, a vertical stair railing infill was the norm. Similarly, top mount posts are a tad more conventional than the alternative modern side mount posts. However, with a stainless railing system, horizontal or vertical cable railing will provide a beautiful, up-to-date look that will modernize any building.
When making design decisions, it’s wise to compare pictures of vertical cable railing with photos of horizontal railing. It’s only by scrutinizing the design details that you can identify your preferences. The same applies to the railing post mounting method; top and side mount railing posts give a very different look.
If you’ve decided on a vertical stair railing, remember there are many materials to choose from. Consider vertical cable or rod railing rather than wood spindles for a modern dwelling; it’s a great way to upgrade and differentiate your home with a modern style statement.
Working with a specialized railing manufacturer like AGS Stainless lets you design the look you love, from the handrail to the post-mount style.
