Vertical cable rail barrier
A vertical cable barrier includes a top rail defining a plurality of top through holes spaced apart along a top web portion. A bottom rail includes a bottom web portion and a pair of bottom leg portions, where the bottom web portion and the pair of bottom leg portions form a channel, and the bottom web portion defines a plurality of bottom through holes spaced apart along the bottom web portion and aligned with the top through holes. A vertical cable is disposed on each side of a rigid support member. Each vertical cable includes a top end directly attached to a hollow tubular shank of a first top swage fitting and a bottom end of received in and directly attached to a hollow tubular shank of a first bottom swage fitting, where the top end of the vertical cable extends through one of the plurality of top through holes, and the bottom end of the vertical cable extends through one of the bottom through holes that is disposed in vertical alignment with the one top through hole. A first adjustable end member is coupled to the first bottom swage fitting and at least part of the first adjustable end member is disposed within the channel, wherein adjusting the first adjustable member adjusts a tension in the vertical cable.
