I would think you would want the top rail installed before tensioning to help brace the posts. Or do the four lags per post do a good job keeping the posts vertical? Getting ready to do the same thing. Black on black looks really nice! Great job!
Were you able to adjust those top pieces on the post when you installed the top railing? Mine are set the way they came and you cannot turn or adjust the top piece. Did you have a similar issue? They are not removable or adjustable and rather made as one piece and do not come out to fit the flat or rounded bracket.
Thanks for watching! I sort of wanted a different look and wider handrail. Also, this is the cable I used. It’s great stuff. www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0CLXWGWML?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

That’s a great suggestion! If I had the handrails already I would have done that. Thanks for watching and for the suggestion!

very nice job!
Cheers!
I really like the way it looks. You would think they would include the wire.
Can you list all the amazon pieces you purchased please

Why did you go with the 1x2 post and not 2x2 post? What is the exact cable you used from Amazon? Thanks very nice

You are kidding yourself if you think those lags are going to remain tight in those wood planks after several years.
Yeah I don’t disagree with you on that. I’ll see how it holds up! Thanks for watching.
I am going to through bolt my vevor posts with galvanized bolts. Just installing one rail with 2 posts into 2x6s.
