Cable Bullet handrail is designed to provide the strongest possible top rail, with the least visual obstruction. The high-strength T-6061 aluminum and reinforced design allow this handrail to span 7-9 ft with minimal deflection under load! Extend your runs, and space your more expensive, bulkier support posts further apart without worrying about the structural integrity of your railing or the cost to your wallet.
Additionally, Cable Bullet handrail meets IRC guidelines for grip-size, making it not only a structural top rail for your deck or landing, but also a seamless, modern handrail for your stairways or ramps.
In order to create a clean, continuous top rail, our handrail was designed to be easily pieced together using structural aluminum splines. These heavy-duty splines allow you to connect your handrail pieces at any point along your run, regardless of where you place your structural posts! Handrail pieces joined using structural aluminum splines do not need to be supported at the joint. As an added benefit, splines are hidden from view, so you won’t need bulky covers that sit on top of your handrail.
All handrail is sold in 93” lengths and can be cut down on-site as needed. To join corners, use Delrin plastic corner splines. For complex handrail angles, use 18" spline stock to make any custom spline necessary to meet your project specifications.
Count the total linear inches of railing you have, divide by 93, and round up to get a rough estimate of how many handrail pieces you'll need to order for your project.
Almost all handrail will require some on-site customization. Depending on your layout, installing the handrail may require advanced skills in measuring, cutting, and basic metalwork. If you're not comfortable with your abilities in these areas, we recommend that you consult a local contractor to help complete the project to your specifications.
PLEASE NOTE: Aluminum posts and handrail are NOT suitable for use in exterior coastal applications. Signature series railing is designed for inland exterior and interior projects. Exposure to salt will cause accelerated oxidation and galvanic corrosion between aluminum and stainless components.
