Turncraft Columns are the choice of so many architects and builders for both exterior and interior applications because they feature thoughtful product design, fine workmanship, superior assembly, precision turning and fluting, and artful finishing. Available with true architectural entasis in sizes and styles consistent with the classic proportions of the Greek Doric, Tuscan, Roman Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian Orders - or custom turned to any specification and size up to 36 inches (914 mm) in diameter and 30 feet (9 mm) in height. Matching square columns and pilasters round out the complete product package.

Long known for its product line of Wood Colonial Columns and turned Wood Porch Posts, Turncraft has now become a leader in advanced material construction products. Now homeowners, commercial builders, and residential contractors can enjoy the traditional aesthetics of architecturally proportioned columns with the low maintenance benefits offered only by cutting edge rotocast fiberglass-reinforced polymer (FRP) in its line of Poly-Classic Columns and fiberglass in its Fibracraft Columns. Turncraft continues as an industry leader in distinctive soft and hardwood stair components.
.
Poly-Classic Columns are available in tapered round, non-tapered round, square, craftsman, fluted, and paneled, in sizes ranging from 6x6 through 24x24 (not all styles in all sizes).
Column Styles Column Styles come in tapered round, non-tapered round, square, craftsman, fluted and paneled.
Available in square, non-tapered Tuscan styling, DuraGlass columns are made from pultruded fiberglass. This advanced material weighs approximately 65% less than FRP. DuraGlass columns are easy to handle and can be trimmed on site. They have an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio, and pound-for-pound are stronger than steel in the lengthwise direction. They are stronger and have a higher flexural strength than timber, so you can depend on them for maximum load-bearing capacity. The hollow center is useful as a channel for downspouts, wiring and plumbing. These columns are impact resistant and will not permanently deform under impact.
All Poly-Classic Columns are virtually maintenance-free. They are impervious to termite and carpenter ant attack as well as staining and decaying fungi. High-humidity environments have no effect on these non-porous, waterproof columns."
Composite Railing System Poly-Classic: Our railings are made from a wood/polymer composite - material that's superior to vinyl in every way. They offer the look and style of premium wood that's virtually maintenance free - with fast and easy installation so you can do more in less time.
