Western Red Cedar Wood Cable Railings

Western Red Cedar is a standard building material used for all sorts of construction purposes thanks to its natural strength and durability. This bright wood option is perfect for adding a natural touch to any railing project.

AVERAGE ORDER: $75-95/LF (Varies depending on configuration)

Options:

  1. How tall do you want your railing system to be? 36 inch or 42 inch?
  2. Would you prefer drilled or undrilled posts? Pre-drilled posts save you time and effort, but undrilled allows you more customization opportunities and accommodates angled surfaces, like stairs.
  3. Determine the Mounting Method that’s best for your application
  4. Don’t forget Mounting Hardware, Fittings, and Cable Infill

The posts we offer are Premium Knotty Western Red Cedar Posts. These engineered posts are meticulously treated, laminated, kiln dried, and bound together into a unique design, resulting in more visually and structurally consistent beams.

Our Western Red Cedar Top Rails are not engineered, as these beams don’t need to withstand as much tension as the posts supporting them, but they are harvested and cut to be “Clear” (grain-free) or “Select Tight-Knot”.

SC&R’s railing systems are highly configurable. Combine a cedar top rail or posts with other materials: ALUMINUM, ROUND STAINLESS STEEL, or SQUARE STAINLESS STEEL. If you are only interested in a wood top rail and would like something slightly lighter, we carry Alaskan Yellow Cedar. If you’re more interested in a darker, richer wood, we also offer a couple exotic species: Balau Mahogany and Ipe Brazilian Walnut.
