From Cable Railing Installation, Step 5: Install Cable Termination Hardware
The installation of the cables begins with feeding the 1/8 inch stainless steel braided cable through the pre-drilled holes in the posts. Since the holes are only slightly larger than the cable and may have paint residue, this can be a delicate process. Once the cable is fed through to the fixed end, it is cut to the appropriate length using cable cutters. Then, the end of the cable is inserted into the fixed fitting and secured using a hydraulic crimper. This step requires two sets of hands: one person to hold the cable taut and aligned, and another to operate the crimper.
