Cable Railing Arcadia Surface Mount Post

The Cable Railing Arcadia Surface Mount Post is part of Inline Design’s Arcadia Press & Latch Cable Railing System. This surface-mounted system is designed for commercial and high-end residential cable railing projects where a stronger, welded top-rail assembly is preferred over a fully modular railing layout. The Arcadia system is not a modular plug-and-play system. It is a project-oriented railing system with pre-drilled posts, welded floor flanges, base covers, and Press & Latch cable fittings supplied according to the selected post type. The top rail bar is intended to be welded. Use it for decks, balconies, terraces, stairs, landings, commercial spaces, and high-end residential projects when installed according to local code, approved mounting conditions, cable spacing requirements, top rail requirements, and project-specific engineering.

Cable must be ordered separately based on project length, cable size, and layout. Top rail bar is not included. The Arcadia system is designed around a welded top rail bar, and the top rail must be supplied and installed according to the project design. Base anchors are not included. Due to the variety of floor surfaces, customers must supply the appropriate connecting hardware for the base, including screws, bolts, anchor bolts, or other project-specific fasteners. For substrate-specific fastener guidance and recommended approaches, see Anchoring Options for Railing Posts. Anchor selection must be based on the mounting surface, including concrete, steel, wood blocking, or other approved structural substrates. Stair posts and other custom posts require an additional fee to account for custom post fabrication and CAD drawings specific to the customer field measurements when necessary. Custom fabrication requires a minimum of 1–2 weeks for production. Cable spacing, post spacing, welded top rail continuity, guardrail height, base flange location, anchoring, and other structural requirements must be verified against local code and project-specific engineering. For coastal or high-corrosion environments, stainless steel must be cleaned and maintained regularly.
