Pascetti Steel recently completed the fabrication & installation of a high tension cable barrier system for a McDonald’s Drive-Thru in Durango, Colorado. This project showcases our expertise in designing & delivering durable cable systems that enhance safety & functionality.

The high tension cable barrier system we installed in Durango provides a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution for controlling vehicle access & enhancing security. This system included the installation of Large W-beams set into a concrete wall, ensuring a solid foundation for the barrier structure.

Our steel barrier systems are engineered for maximum strength & flexibility, making them ideal for high-traffic areas where impact resistance is crucial.

At Pascetti Steel, we specialize in designing & fabricating custom cable barriers tailored to meet the unique needs of each project.

Our team ensures precision in every step, from material selection to final installation, guaranteeing optimal performance & durability.

This project also involved the installation of intermediate steel posts, which were field welded with cross bracing to provide additional stability & strength.

We integrated a drive-thru cable barrier system specifically for the McDonald’s, allowing controlled access while maintaining a secure perimeter.

The threading of ½” cables was meticulously completed to ensure proper tension & function.

Benefits of High Tension Cable Barrier Systems

1. Enhanced Safety
   • Effectively prevents vehicles from crossing into opposing traffic, reducing the risk of severe head-on collisions.
   • Absorbs & redirects crash energy, lowering the impact forces on occupants compared to rigid barriers.
2. Cost-Effective
   • Lower initial installation costs compared to concrete or guardrail systems.
   • Easier & less expensive to repair after an impact—only the struck section of cables/posts typically needs replacement.
3. Quick Installation
   • Faster to install than traditional barriers, minimizing lane closure times & traffic disruption.
4. Flexibility & Performance
   • Can handle impacts from different angles & vehicle sizes (cars, SUVs, light trucks).
   • Effective in medians as narrow as 6–8 feet, making it suitable for a variety of roadway designs.
5. Reduced Vehicle Damage
   • Cables “give” on impact, which typically results in less severe vehicle damage compared to hitting concrete walls or guardrails.
6. Improved Roadside Visibility
   • Slim profile maintains driver sightlines & reduces the “visual barrier” effect that solid walls can create.
7. Proven Crash Test Results
   • Meets Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) crash test standards (NCHRP Report 350 / MASH).
   • Successfully contains & redirects vehicles at highway speeds.
8. Adaptability
   • Works well in rural, suburban, & urban settings.
   • Can be used in medians, along curves, or on roadside edges where space is limited.

Custom commercial cable railings are ideal for many projects. Custom cable rail is often desired in place of traditional pickets to achieve nearly unobstructed views as the cable is much thinner than traditional pickets. It is also a more modern aesthetic and is often chosen for that reason. A well designed cable railing system will enhance the view from a deck with minimal obstruction. Designed with CAD and prefabricated to ensure a precise fit, our custom cable railing systems will bring your indoor and outdoor spaces together.

For commercial clients we work directly with architects and contractors to design a perfect solution for your space. Our pre-fabricated cable railings are designed to your unique specifications using high quality, maintenance-free materials and hardware.

Our custom cable railings provide the perfect solution for many interior and exterior applications.

• Frames can be hot-dip galvanized, painted, powder coated, or chemically rusted. View our full list of finish options here.
• Tensioning devices can be concealed within the frames, providing a sleek and tamper-resistant product, which is ideal in public venues where vandalism may occur.
• Our experienced and OSHA certified team can manage almost any installation.

Pascetti Steel completed the installation on this difficult site, much of the cable railing was installed from a floating construction barge. The boardwalk incorporates a 50′ performance pavilion with a canopy, which provides 2,000 feet of coverage. The boardwalk serves as the stage. The project began in June of 2012 and was completed in May 2013. Additional information regarding the project can be found through the prominent Orange, TX news site, The Record (therecordlive.com)

The riverfront and pavilion sits along the Sabine River in downtown Orange and features a twelve-foot wide boardwalk, a large pavilion, and a two-acre green space. This venue serves as the host site for many of Orange’s outdoor festivals but is open to the public to enjoy.

Testimonial from homeowner:

“Our experience with Damian and Pascetti Steel Design was fabulous, from the first meeting to the final installation. Everything they did was perfect- from the handrails on the stairs, to the decorative pieces on the gates. Their attention to detail was second to none. They made the entire process a pleasure, and were eager to make everything right. Our home was the Parade of Homes champion, and to a large part because of Pascetti Steel. We wholeheartedly recommend them without any reservation whatsoever.” – Pat Porter
