Intermediate Spreader Posts are used to maintain cable spacing and reduce cable “spread” by decreasing the distance in between larger vertical railing posts. These are non structural posts typically made of a light gauge material and display a visibly leaner profile in order to minimize obstruction. The use of intermediate spreader posts allows a greater distance in between the structural posts, creating larger daylight openings on cable deck railings. Also commonly referred to as “spreaders” or “intermediate pickets”, these posts are compatible with wooden or stainless steel cable railing posts. Combining different sizes and materials can be a great way to create an interesting look as well as value engineer a railing package.
San Diego Cable Railings now proudly offers “Ultra Slim” spreader posts at our online store. We combined the durability of welded connections and stainless steel with the sleek aesthetics of a slim flat bar profile. Much like our other railing post products, our spreader posts are made locally with domestic stainless steel. By utilizing welded connections and solid stainless steel members, we are able to offer an intermediate spreader post unlike anything available at retail locations or big box stores. SDCR spreader posts are available in both T304 and T316 grade stainless steel, and can be used in combination with our pre made wooden and stainless steel railing posts. “Ultra Slim” spreader posts do not require multiple parts and pieces or assembly and they are furnished with all necessary mounting hardware.
The sales/production staff and preferred installation contractors at SDCR are constantly performing trials and field tests in order to continually improve our product line. Our cable railing products are designed to be safe and easy to install by professional or DIY customers. Our railing posts and packages offer minimalist aesthetics and minimal components which results in beautiful railings and less time on the job.
