Review on πŸ”© ZONEGRACE 1/8" Deck Cable Railing Systems Lag Screws 64 Pack - Left & Right, Stainless Steel Stair Deck Railing Wood Post Balusters, Cable Deck Railing Hardware (32 Pairs) by Rip Twin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Allow for some scrap when calculating how many screws you need.

Practice makes perfect - after a few complete sections (post by post) you will become an expert. But if you've never used this left/right crimp screw concept before, it will take time to feel confident enough to make subsequent installations easy. Take into account that you will lose some of these pairs early. But only a few pairs - maybe 1% of your total order that you want to backorder. Do not attempt to compress these crimps by hand - they are made of stainless steel and a hand hydraulic tool rated for stainless steel is required to achieve a good crimp. A tool in the 50 ton range gets the job done with minimal effort. Once complete, these crimped left/right screw mounts provide a very clean install and look far better than other types of wire rail mounts that have more hardware visible on each post.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Price that breaks the piggy bank
