Hey all:

I’m trying to wind up my reno project and the last piece I need is stair rails. It took me a while to figure out that what I really want is a ‘cable rail system’ as shown here:

But I got a first price of 10k and I was hoping to spend a lot less.

I don’t want to use wood, I’m trying to do a more modern look. I’ve seen another system around that I’m thinking might be cheaper, but I’ve mostly seen it outside (then again, it may be used inside but I only have so many friends).

If I was to install the railing shown in the photo above would y’all shake your heads and say I completely lost it? Or would you like it?
