VISIOMODAluminium Balcony Railings
Stainless Steel Cable Deck Railing
Formerly known as Stainless Steel Cable Deck Railing
SSC-DRStainless steel cable deck railing with aluminium posts — horizontal cables create a transparent barrier with nautical elegance. Ideal for balconies, decks and pool areas. Any RAL colour for posts.
Tensioned Stainless Cable, Open Views
The VisioMod Cable Deck railing uses horizontally tensioned stainless steel cables (3.2mm / 1×19 construction) as infill between aluminium posts. Cables are spaced at 75–100mm intervals and tensioned to 300–450N using turnbuckle fittings at one end. The 40×40mm aluminium posts with internal cable routing conceal all tensioning hardware for a clean exterior. The system provides maximum visual openness while meeting EN 1991-1-1 residential barrier requirements. Suitable for decks, terraces, staircases, and waterfront installations. Posts are powder-coated in any RAL colour; cables are 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

PRODUCT ANSWERS
Practical answers about cable deck railings.
Use these answers when comparing cable railing against glass, aluminium bar and privacy-panel routes.
What is a cable deck railing best used for?
Cable deck railing fits terraces, decks and balcony edges where the project wants slim horizontal lines and a lighter visual barrier than panel or slat systems.
Compare balcony options →When is glass a better route?
Glass is often better when the project needs a cleaner transparent windbreak effect or uninterrupted view line. Cable railing is more about lightness and horizontal rhythm.
Compare glass railings →What should be checked before quotation?
Confirm post spacing, cable run length, corner conditions, corrosion environment, fixing surface, maintenance expectation and local guardrail documentation needs.

Maximum Visual Openness
3.2mm cables are nearly invisible at distance — preserving views of landscape, water, or cityscape.
316L Stainless Cables
Marine-grade stainless steel withstands salt spray, pool chemicals, and coastal environments.
Concealed Tensioning
Turnbuckle fittings hidden inside the aluminium posts — no visible hardware on the cable lines.
Self-Locking System
Cable fittings lock under tension and do not loosen over time — minimal maintenance required.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSCommon Questions.
Initial settling may require one adjustment after 6–12 months. After that, the self-locking fittings maintain tension indefinitely.
Yes, when cable spacing is 75mm or less (maximum gap for child safety per most European codes). The system meets EN 1991-1-1 residential loads.
Up to 1500mm for residential applications. Longer spans require intermediate posts or higher cable tension.
