"It went great! We found Fisher Precious Metals on Angie's List, and after googling them, we found they had very positive reviews across the web. Although it was a 45 minute drive from our home, we felt it might be worth it, and it was. We made an appointment with John via email, arrived at 11:00, and spent just over an hour in his office. He evaluated the sterling silver set we had to sell and gave us what we felt was a very fair price. He'd given us an estimate on the value of the gold coins via email, and although the price of gold had fluctuated since he'd provided the quote, the final price was very, very close to the initial quote. We were happy to learn that they will also buy jewelry, as I have a few pieces I haven't worn in a very long time. We were very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely return to their company when we have gold or silver to sell, and we're happy to recommend them to our friends. One thing to keep in mind is that sterling silver sets are basically worth the price of the silver itself. We knew that going in, so we were not disappointed and, in fact, the price we received was a little higher than we'd expected."

Start by multiplying the total railing length by the number of horizontal cables you plan to use. For example, a 50-foot run with 11 cables needs about 550 feet of wire. Add 10% extra to allow for trimming and tensioning. Double-check the manufacturer’s specs and your local code before cutting—both can affect spacing and final length.
Cable railings require regular cleaning with mild soap and water to remove salt, pollen, and grime that can trigger corrosion. Plan on wiping the cables every few months and inspecting the tension once or twice a year. If you have wood posts or handrails, add periodic sanding and sealing to keep moisture out. Staying on top of these quick tasks keeps the system safe, taut, and looking sharp for years to come.
Installers use high-tension fittings and precise spacing to lock each cable in place. Stainless steel strands are pre-stretched and then tightened with calibrated hardware until they meet the code-required tension. The result is a rigid infill that resists sag even under daily use. Periodic checks with a tension gauge ensure everything is dialed in, keeping the railing straight and safe year after year.
With routine upkeep, stainless steel cable railings easily last several decades. The metal resists rust, and quality fittings stay tight with minimal adjustment. Keep the cables clean and protect any wood components with fresh sealant as needed. Follow those basic steps, and you’ll likely replace the deck before you replace the railing.
Most jurisdictions set rules for maximum cable spacing, overall railing height, and minimum tension. These standards keep small children from slipping through and prevent the wires from sagging over time. Code details change by state, county, and sometimes city, so call the local building department before you order materials. Your installer should also pull the proper permits and schedule any required inspections.
