Crown Fiber-Cast Porch Columns

The Crown Column difference

Tarheel Wood Treating offers quality, classic style and attention to detail in Crown Porch Columns in the Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Morrisville, "Triangle", North Carolina area for the discriminating builder and homeowner. Offered are two architectural styles of Crown fiberglass round and square columns.

Round Fiber-cast Columns

Fiber-cast columns from Crown Column & Millwork are a satisfying combination of modern-day technology and low maintenance care. Each column shaft is produced with the lower one third straight and the upper two thirds tapered, creating a correct architectural entasis. Entasis, attributed to ancient Greek architecture, is the slight convex curving of the column shaft resulting in a most pleasing appearance. Fiber-cast columns are available in plain and fluted shafts. Our fluted round columns are cast fluted, resulting in a crisp, deep and architecturally correct Ionic flute.

Square Fiberglass Columns

Square fiberglass columns offer an alternative to the more traditional round columns. The square columns are made from specially formulated glass-reinforced polymers with a one-piece shaft and applied astragal with an attractive capital and base molding. Crown's square fiberglass column is both lightweight and strong, resulting in a column that is easy to handle, water-resistant and impervious to moisture-related problems. The astragal is cast on the column; the flutes are crisp, deep and architecturally correct.

Fiber-cast Product Quality

The columns are a composition of cast glass-reinforced polymers with exceptional strength and durability. This lightweight yet strong and durable product is the best choice for exterior projects, which call for large columns. The winding process of the column allows for a high concentration of fiberglass and a lower concentration of fillers. The high contents of fiberglass gives this product the durability and strength required of large exterior columns.

Eliminating the need for a crane to handle and install this column also makes it an ideal selection. Typical options for any fiber-cast column includes cutting at the bead, cutting to overall length, splitting, and tabbing for reassembly.

Round non-tapered plain cast columns are available in 8", 10", 12", 14" and 16" diameters up to 18'.
