Reviews

Cable Bullet review

"I recently installed the Cable Bullet handrailing on my deck and staircase. Overall Cable Bullet is a a great product was easier to install than I thought it might be. However that said it really helped to have a finish carpenter working with me to ensure the posts were installed level, plumb and in alignment, which is key to installation. My number one recommendation is that the hand rail itself is not delivered with precise 90% square ends. Once we identified this issue we cut both ends and repainted them. After that was completed they fit tight and straight and look great! The over all fit and finish of the materials is also excellent. My brother in-law also hand a cable hand rail system installed which was custom manufactured, and I would say the Cable Bullet product looks better and was substantially less expensive."

Great products

"We had to cut the bottom of the side Mount post off drill holes on the back side and we mounted it to a concrete wall. The same way we mounted the normal post to the concrete"

Gary W. (5/5)

Awesome product and support

"This is an amazing product. I've done 3 projects with signature series top mount railing and love them. The ugly old wood is gone and the view is unobscured now. They aren't kidding when they call the stair rail "advanced". It took a bit of measuring and remeasuring to get it right. The instructional video suggesting laying a piece of scrap wood on top first to get the alignment correct was a good idea. One more project top go with cable bullet and I will have transformed the entire outdoor space from high maintenance and ugly to clean, unobstructed, and nearly no maintenance."

Warren B. (5/5)

Class signature seties

"I just completed my Cable Bullet railing system, looks great. It assembles rather easily, but I took my time to make sure everything was done right. You will need some mechanical ability to complete."

Q&A

Can a terminal post be used as an intermediate post? I'd prefer the look of terminal posts and would like to use them everywhere. If yes, can the cable pass through or would it need tensioners on each side?
Hi Mike! It is possible to construct your entire project using terminal posts instead of intermediates, but we don't recommend it as it will significantly raise the cost of your overall project. If you still wanted to opt for all terminal posts, you would need to install metal tensioners on both sides of a 2-way terminal post which you could then pass your cable through without using the tensioning mechanism. Each metal tensioner comes with a set screws which you could drive in to match the look of the tensioning posts if you so desired, but they wouldn't provide any actual tension to the cables on your pass-through posts. Just make sure you aren't running your cables more than 20 feet between tensioning posts. Alternatively, you could make short cable spans and tension them at every post, but this will take quite a bit of time.
Do you offer a cable railing system without the top handrail? If not, is the rail necessary? The application is outside of eze breeze windows on an elevated deck. It’s added safety but will not be accessible from inside so no need for a top rail.
Hi, Brad! We do not offer a specifically, handrail-free system as we suggest that all projects to have handrail if the system is being used for railing. In your specific situation, our support team may be able to help you find a solution without handrail if the area is truly not accessible. We would be happy to discuss the options with you if you send photos of your project to info@cablebullet.com!
Hi, Is there a post option without cable holes? Then The cable hole could be drilled to match the slop of the stairs.
Great question! We do not typically offer blank posts. Our standard tensioning posts used along with our flexible 7x7 cable are designed to accommodate IRC-compliant stair slopes with the tensioners installed horizontally. We also offer line (intermediate) posts with beveled holes that allow the cables to pass through at an angle without deflection. If you had a different solution in mind, our support team would be happy to work with you on it! You can reach them by calling (574) 742-2737 or by emailing info@cablebullet.com.
do you make an inside corner post that can be used for stairs. I have a footbridge inside my home that is about 8" long with a 90 degree right turn down 4 steps.
Hi Jerry! In order to fully answer your question we would need more information about your setup. If you could send an image of your stairs and landing to info@cablebullet.com we may have a solution for you!
For the outside side mount 43 inch post, what is the overall size of the mounting plate? I believe the The has 4 holes. Also does the 36 inch post have the same mounting bracket size?
The Outside Corner Post mounting brackets for our Signature Series Side Mount Terminal Posts are X-shaped. They are 5 inches tall and 3.53 inches square following the lines of the X. Both our 42 inch posts and our 36 inch posts use the same mounting brackets. Each bracket has 4 holes for mounting the bracket to your surface and another 4 for attaching your post. I hope this answers your question! If you need more information, our customer service team would be happy to assist you at (574) 742-2737!
