Methods and structures for securing a tensioned cable to a support post in a cable railing system. A threaded insert is inserted into the support post and a decorative cover placed over the support post. A cable-lock is partially screwed into the threaded insert and an end of the cable inserted into the cable-lock. The cable-lock is further screwed into the threaded insert to tension the cable. A further embodiment provides that a tensioning cartridge is loaded and placed in a support post, a decorative cover placed over the support post, an end of the cable inserted into a push-to-lock fitting of the tensioning cartridge, and a sprint-lock mechanism of the tensioning cartridge released to tension the cable.
