Frequently Asked Questions

BLIKA specializes in manufacturing high-quality cable railing accessories. Thanks to our robust supply chain and advanced production techniques, we offer better prices and superior quality compared to other market options. Our products have garnered numerous positive reviews on Amazon. Our mission is to provide excellent, affordable products for all DIY cable railing enthusiasts.

For optimal strength, cable railing Kits feature premium T304/T316 stainless steel components; T316 is the standard choice for all exterior and coastal projects demanding maximum corrosion protection, while powder-coated aluminum offers a lightweight alternative for posts and rails.

Typically, a professionally built project, including labor, materials, and design, can cost around $3000. However, by using Blika products and doing it yourself, you can complete the project for just $500.

In the U.S., cable railings must prevent a 4-inch sphere from passing through, according to building codes. To comply and maintain aesthetics, space your cables no more than 3 inches apart. This spacing ensures safety by preventing excessive flexing and meets the necessary regulations. For longer spans, use intermediate posts to maintain cable tension and spacing.

Focus on these three areas:

  1. Project Environment: T316 Marine-Grade Stainless Steel is mandatory for outdoor or coastal areas to resist corrosion.
  2. Installation Method: Decide between crimped terminals (requiring a hydraulic crimping tool) or simpler swageless tensioners for DIY ease.
  3. Post Requirements: Confirm your post material (wood/metal) and the installation angle (horizontal/stairs) to select the correct angle-adjustable hardware.

A complete Cable Railing System consists of Posts (vertical support), a Handrail (grip/safety), T316 Stainless Steel Wire Rope (infill), and specialized Fittings & Hardware (tensioners/terminals) to maintain cable tension and structural stability.

While we currently do not provide complimentary samples, we fully support your need to assess quality before a large commitment. We encourage you to purchase the minimum quantity required to test our stainless steel products. If the item does not meet your expectations, you are fully covered by our warranty policy to initiate a return. We are committed to ensuring you feel confident and supported in your final railing system purchase.

Yes, cable railings are safe for children and pets when properly installed. The cables are typically spaced to prevent small children or pets from squeezing through, adhering to safety regulations that ensure a secure environment.

1、Use Angled Posts: Install specially designed angled posts that accommodate the slope of the stairs.

2、Adjustable Fittings: Utilize adjustable fittings or swivel brackets to connect cables at the correct angle. In our store, we offer specialized 30-degree and 45-degree angle fittings specifically designed for stair cable railings.

3、Measure Precisely: Carefully measure and cut cables to ensure they fit tightly and securely.

4、Intermediate Posts: Add intermediate posts or brackets to maintain proper cable tension and spacing along the incline.

A Cable Railing System is a visually striking, modern railing solution that replaces traditional vertical balusters with taut, high-strength Stainless Steel Cables (typically 1/8 inch diameter) as the primary infill. This sophisticated design maximizes open views and light transmission, making it an ideal choice for decks, patios, balconies, and staircases. Beyond offering essential safety assurance and structural integrity, cable railing provides a clean, minimalist aesthetic that enhances both contemporary and transitional architectural styles.
