Erik: you bring a lot of Light ☀️ into this world 🌎. I am happy that I found your channel. You have a knack for bringing out the best in people around you. 😁. Thank you 🙏🏻 for building great memories with others. You’re a truly Legendary carpenter! 😇.
As Usual, PERFECTION‼️ This video exemplifies YALL’s Love for Your Craftsmanship and more importantly, Love for Your Customers‼️❤️ And Your Followers‼️ Thank You 🙏‼️
I'm so happy for this video. I have a little mountain cabin in Utah at 10,100 feet and in desperately need a new railing. I'm having a heck of a time getting anyone to come and help me with it. I'm sure I could do the drilling holes and cable work if I could get someone to weld me up some the balusters. Thanks again for the great content!
somehow i missed this one! thank you RUclips for putting this in the feed. RUclips finally working as hard as the Perkins Builder Brothers and Buddies. Great build Erik!
Love your videos. I'm getting back into carpentry and they are a healthy refresher. It's hard to find quality youtube tool guys without too much pomp or just being bad at presenting. Good job!
I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package ruclips.net/user/postUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
nice work. tech tip - wrap a piece of masking tape around the cable at the cut line. cut through the center of the tape. this prevents cables from fraying open when being cut leaving BOTH halves of your cut clean. it also prevents you from stabbing your fingers with fray.
Thanks for the video. This was the product I was looking at. We will be installing a replacement deck this summer. Composite decking. This video will help tremendously.
Nice job boys, it's always a good thing to master the fitting of a new product to be able to offer your customers a new type of finish to your work. I'm a carpenter in the uk and we also have the 4inch or 99/100mm rule I. Our building regulations for the maximum allowed spacing between things like stair balustrade ng/spindles so that a babies head cannot fit through the gap and get stuck. It's the little things that make the difference!
Love watching you guys and you do amazing clean work very impressive and your never take yourselves to serious which is super cool anyway keep the videos coming all the best darrall from uk
Excellent work I just got call from client yesterday, I didn’t know how to do it ( will be my first time)your video will help me so much Very well done 👍 step by step
You should hold the cable to prevent it from twisting while you're tightening the turnbuckle. The residual torsion in the cable can cause the turnbuckle to loosen up later.
The building code is very relaxed in your area. Here in Ontario if a deck is above 5’ it needs a 42” railing. Cable doesn’t pass code here either because no horizontal members are allowed in the railing between 5” and 38.5”.
We’ve done similar wire stainless cable through metal tubes. Can’t remember the sizes but we put pvc pipes in the holes through the metal tubes and used a waterproof sealant that also adheres to metal which made it easy to thread the wire through and then.. more importantly.. it was less likely moisture would find its way inside the tube. Love the channel thanks.
You're supposed to retighten the cables every year for the first three to five years 23lbs outside 18lbs interior And they sell a cable rail that has LED lights built inside of it in case you don't know- for EXACTLY that purpose- outdoor decks And we used beeswax for NO SQUEAKING
The cables look great. It’s a neat way to put a rail and still look great with little maintenance. An possible is to start screwing from the bottom so that way you don’t have to hold the hardware out of the way as you go up.
Funny, I recently bought some mountain top property in the Northeast side of Asheville. When I began watching your videos I noticed the view and thought damn that looks like Blue Ridge. Quick google of Perkins Bro’s and confirmed my suspicion. Those views are unmistakably beautiful. Makes me want to begin my build soon. Unfortunately my work keeps me away from the area most of the year. Thanks for keeping me in touch with my new ‘home town’.
That cable crimper is pretty expensive, especially if you are only doing 1 job like I did. Instead I bought Harbor Freight bolt cutters and ground the edge off of them. Worked like a charm.
Went through a local supplier the last time I put up cabling and it was a nightmare. Looks like my assumption was correct: you can always find something better (and more reasonably priced) on Amazon. Sucks but true.
I made cable railings for my first deck 27 years ago. It was not easy and I'm wondering if this hardware (stainless turnbuckles, etc.,) was available back then. Would've looked so much better! Beautiful job guys!
2 questions for the experts. 1. What size crimping die do you use for crimping a 1/8 inch cable? 2. Should you crimp the cable, once or twice on each end for it to be secured? (On one or two different spots?) Thanks in advance!
The content you guys do is great. I love the look of cable railing. I have never done cables that you crimp to the hardware that is genius! Also why did the video go black for so long?
Could you use a pipes between the posts where you use the fixers to hold the cable? That way you can use one wire from one end of the deck to the other, the wire would just curve around the pipe.
These horizontal cable rails are against code in Canada due to children being able to climb them like a ladder. If you just have to use them because you like the look, you also have to add glass panels (tempered) on the interior side so the kids can't climb them, but that of coarse doubles the cost.
Do you have a video on fabrication of the steel handrails? You have a material list for the handrails? Curious what type & size metal were used for fabrication of the handrails. Excellent videos. Especially the Farmhouse series.
I love Asheville (my current home) great to see you guys take pride in your work. Beautiful view and good looking deck. What's your intermediate posts spacing?
Wow didn’t know y’all were from Asheville thanks guys for the great content, electrician here from Hilton head, my sister just moved there would love to work with you sometime! 👍🏼
If you used keylink cable rail you don’t need to swage the fittings on. If you make a mistake and forget an insert of the middle of the run you just unhook the cable no need to cut and run new cable.
have you guys ever considered atlantis rail? they have a template you can buy for your posts. i use it all the time and its very convenient as a charlotte area builder.
I'm wondering how the interaction of the stainless steel hardware and the (what looks like) galvanized self-tapping screws, and the painted steel post looks like after several years. Stainless steel in contact with galvanized steel often causes it to rust at a very accelerated rate through the creation of a galvanic corrosion cell. I could see the paint protecting the posts, but unless the self-tappers are stainless, I'd worry about them rusting out very quickly.

That is best cable instruction video on you tube, thank you!

Total FAN!!! Thanks for your TIPS very helpful if I plan on installing cable rails.
42” is our code height in Ca. Great job guys!
Dan Montanez I was thinking the same, guard rail @ 42, handrail @ 36

Excellent videography. Shots were perfect to describe

The worm was a cool bonus at the end 😂 amazing work y’all! 🙌🏽💪🏽
WOW, I was just struggling with this issue. Can't believe the timing!! thank you so much!
Love watching you guys and you do amazing clean work very impressive and your never take yourselves to serious which is super cool anyway keep the videos coming all the best darrall from uk
Very appealing yet functional rail system install. -Bob...
Excellent work
I just got call from client yesterday, I didn’t know how to do it ( will be my first time)your video will help me so much
Very well done 👍 step by step
You guys do awesome work! Its great to see your workmanship! Thank you for sharing!
That was a nice show, on cable. Just the right amount of tension had me on the edge of my seat!
Nice job boys
You should hold the cable to prevent it from twisting while you're tightening the turnbuckle. The residual torsion in the cable can cause the turnbuckle to loosen up later.
Wow, it looks fantastic 👍🎉🔨🍺
Awesome job guys. I’ve always loved the look of this system and plan on installing it on my deck also. You guys have a great sense of humor too.
The building code is very relaxed in your area. Here in Ontario if a deck is above 5’ it needs a 42” railing. Cable doesn’t pass code here either because no horizontal members are allowed in the railing between 5” and 38.5”.
The template is life! Damned good idea.
really nice video ... good ideas thank you

Can’t remember the sizes but we put pvc pipes in the holes through the metal tubes and used a waterproof sealant that also adheres to metal which made it easy to thread the wire through and then.. more importantly.. it was less likely moisture would find its way inside the tube. Love the channel thanks.
How is it holding up, was the pvc needed
Now i have the idea. Thanks for this essential information. Well done.
You're supposed to retighten the cables every year for the first three to five years
23lbs outside
18lbs interior
And they sell a cable rail that has LED lights built inside of it in case you don't know- for EXACTLY that purpose- outdoor decks
And we used beeswax for NO SQUEAKING
Damn man. bad ass video. Thank you so much for the help.
Glad I watched the whole video, for the worm😂 Another fantastically informative video boys.
Looks perfect all I would worry about is that all those drill holes will rust.
Another great informational video. Keep em' coming. Thanks.
Great video and very informative.
that looks super guys nice job
I haven’t used that style from Muzata yet but all the ones I have used recommend double crimping. Looks great!
Looks amaizing!!!
The cables look great. It’s a neat way to put a rail and still look great with little maintenance. An possible is to start screwing from the bottom so that way you don’t have to hold the hardware out of the way as you go up.

If you guys lived in Middle Tennessee you would definitely build my next home!!!
LOL Love the ending
This is gold! 🤘🏽🙌🏾💯😎
Great video, you guys are the best. I so look forward to seeing your next video.
great video! very informative. looks like you guys are having fun too, its nice to see. stay safe brother
great job..professional and quality
Looks like your working in the Cliffs. Nice view!
Nice, hadn't thought of looking at Amazon!
Horrid company - they've closed down half of the UK High Street and pay little tax !
Use a local hardware supplier - whilst they still exist.
That cable crimper is pretty expensive, especially if you are only doing 1 job like I did. Instead I bought Harbor Freight bolt cutters and ground the edge off of them. Worked like a charm.
Wow, gods beauty…. What a view
Very nice installation
You guys read my mind from the other side of the state! Was looking at doing this on a staircase and wondering how it was done.
Great idea to custom make those posts so you can control all the pieces!
Dope worm dance. For the rain suits try a brand CLC you won't regret it. I buy the for all!! The guys in the shop they love them. Super dope house
Great vid. Thank you. Big help.
Great to find your video. I had trouble getting the swage tool to get tight enough. My first time trying it
That looks amazing!
Such a beautiful home! Nice work on all the vids you guys put out .
You should put an amazon affiliate link in the description! More $$$ to help you make more great videos!
If your looking for this specific hardware, DIY Pete did a deck with this hardware and has a link to amazon.
Excellent worm form.
Great vid
Wow... I need to get out to Western NC more often.
Went through a local supplier the last time I put up cabling and it was a nightmare. Looks like my assumption was correct: you can always find something better (and more reasonably priced) on Amazon. Sucks but true.
looks way nicer that the all wood ones you do
I would’ve liked to have see the posts and how they were mounted to the deck?
Wow that turned out awesome. We ended up just using wood on ours.
thanks for watching this video,,, greetings from stainless steel beginners
I made cable railings for my first deck 27 years ago. It was not easy and I'm wondering if this hardware (stainless turnbuckles, etc.,) was available back then. Would've looked so much better! Beautiful job guys!
The last time I looked horizontal spindles didn't meet code. Kids can easily climb and do a Superman into the yard.
They do.
Yeah kids always do that
Ray's a razorback fan, woo pig! Great video, it turned out great.
🐗
Thanks for the info and teaching... 😳 the worm...🤪😅😂😂😂😂
Blessings
Why not a little bit of fun...another hit , look good really good
2 questions for the experts. 1. What size crimping die do you use for crimping a 1/8 inch cable? 2. Should you crimp the cable, once or twice on each end for it to be secured? (On one or two different spots?) Thanks in advance!
#6, two crimps on each end.
That is amazing!
Turnbuckle installation tip # 1.5+
Start from the bottom.. haha
Awesome job and video
That seal came out of nowhere at the end 😂😂

Not to mention 42" is minimum guard height and he said theirs is 36 high, weird how things like that are different around the world!
Nice job
Do you have a video on fabrication of the steel handrails? You have a material list for the handrails? Curious what type & size metal were used for fabrication of the handrails. Excellent videos. Especially the Farmhouse series.
Up here in the great white north that deck railing has to be 42" for that hight from ground. 36" five and under.
One of our guys is from New Hampshire and he told me the same thing!
And 3" on center for cable rails with posts >36" on center. Especially without the recommended 200lbs of tension on each cable
Digging the hog toboggan.
5:18 start from the bottom up so you don't have to deal with the piece hanging
I love Asheville (my current home) great to see you guys take pride in your work. Beautiful view and good looking deck. What's your intermediate posts spacing?
Wow didn’t know y’all were from Asheville thanks guys for the great content, electrician here from Hilton head, my sister just moved there would love to work with you sometime! 👍🏼
Damn the guy at the end must have iron nuts :D
That dance just made me a subscriber
Go Hogs!

Really good worm
Where did you get the posts from?
I'm wondering how the interaction of the stainless steel hardware and the (what looks like) galvanized self-tapping screws, and the painted steel post looks like after several years. Stainless steel in contact with galvanized steel often causes it to rust at a very accelerated rate through the creation of a galvanic corrosion cell. I could see the paint protecting the posts, but unless the self-tappers are stainless, I'd worry about them rusting out very quickly.
What kind of games are you playing at your dentists office? Sounds lit.
That thumbnail 👍 I wonder if it would be worth predrilling the ballusters before welding. If you have a CNC mill it might save time.
One question guys , what about the post with a hole on both sides , water is going inside , or you use stainless steel post ?
Scotty 2 Hotty left WWE to become a builder lol
One little thing i think I'll do is start screwing then on from the bottom of the post so they will hang out of the way of the next one.
Start on the bottom so the turnbuckles and ends aren't constantly in the way like they when you go top down
