Cable Railings, Evolved!
OUR SERVICES
Your posts will be the COLUMNS they were meant to be.
CABLE RAIL INSTALLATION
The Railing Loom is the next generation in the evolution of cable railings. Not just in the
appearance and performance of the final product, but also for the installer.
If you’ve installed cable railings before, you know how tedious it can be. Drill holes for every
cable, cut each cable separately, then attach hardware to each end of each strand of cable.
Install each strand of cable in between the posts and then, the worst part: “tensioning”. But you
can’t really tension them, or else the hardware fails, so it’s a game of taking the slack out of
each strand. If you tighten one cable too much, slack appears in the other cables, and they
droop… Urgh!
With the Railing Loom, one strand of cable weaves between two Looms, creating an entire
cable panel. There are just two cable stops per panel (one on each end of the cable, hidden in a
discreet pocket on each Loom), and two screws to tension each Loom, so a total of four screws
to tension the entire panel, at once!
Since the cable is continuous, as you tension the Looms, the tension in every section of cable
self-adjusts. This means that the tension of each cable strand stays relatively even,
automatically! No more adjusting each individual strand!
What do I mean by tension? If you could tune the cables, you could play them like a guitar!
