Cable Railing Installation for Interior and Exterior Use
Cable railing systems work just as well indoors as they do outside. They’re popular for staircases, balconies, lofts, and second-floor openings.
What Makes a Cable Railing System Work
A proper cable railing installation needs:
- Stainless steel cable systems rated for residential use
- Correct tensioning so cables don’t sag
- Secure post anchoring
- Spacing that meets Florida code
- A top rail that’s comfortable to grip
People often think cable railings are just wires and posts. In reality, tension, anchoring, and layout matter more than the cable itself.
We install cable railings alongside floating stairs or as stand-alone railing systems during stair remodels and full home renovations.
Custom Staircase Design for Boca Raton Homes
No two homes are the same, and staircases shouldn’t be either.
Some homes need a straight run. Others need a switchback or L-shaped layout. Ceiling height, wall placement, and flooring all affect the final design.
Our custom staircase design process includes:
- On-site consultations in Boca Raton
- Reviewing existing framing and structure
- Discussing materials that fit your home style
- Planning for lighting, railings, and safety
- Designing around building code from the start
This avoids the common mistake of designing a stair that looks great on paper but doesn’t work in the space.
Materials We Commonly Use
We choose materials based on function, safety, and long-term durability. Not trends.
Floating Stair Materials
- Hardwood stair treads
- Steel or concealed metal stringers
- Wall-mounted or center-spine support systems
Railing Options
- Stainless steel cable railings
- Metal posts
- Tempered glass panels for select projects
Each material is chosen to handle daily use and Florida conditions.
Interior Stair Remodeling That Actually Improves the Home
Many Boca Raton homeowners contact us during a remodel, not a new build. Old staircases often feel closed off, noisy, or unsafe.
Interior stair remodeling can include:
- Removing bulky railings
- Replacing traditional stairs with floating stairs
- Updating treads and finishes
- Adding modern railing systems
- Improving stair safety and spacing
Surprisingly, this one change often has more visual impact than new flooring or paint.
Safety and Code Compliance Come First
Floating stairs and cable railings still have to follow rules. Florida building code doesn’t care how modern something looks.
Our installations follow:
- Florida residential building codes
- Proper railing height and spacing
- Load requirements for stairs and railings
- Secure mounting to approved structures
We handle code-compliant installation from the beginning, so there are no surprises during inspection.
