Fiberglass Columns

Accent your home with a durable work of art.

We carry the widest variety of sizes available in fiberglass columns.  They are specially constructed for all types of decorative and load-bearing installations and have ARCHITECTURALLY CORRECT proportions  and projections.  Dixie-Pacific Fiberglass Columns are lightweight and require very little maintenance.  They are ideal for indoor and outdoor applications because all parts are non-porous, water-proof, and impervious to insect infestation.

Left: Plain shown with Tuscan Cap & Base.  Right: Fluted shown with Tuscan Cap and Attic Base.
Each column comes standard with an architecturally correct Tuscan cap and base (Attic base is optional).  Fiberglass columns from 8"x8' to 16"x12' are manufactured from highly advanced fiberglass reinforced polymers (FRP).  This composition creates one of the MOST DURABLE load-bearing columns available.  We offer both plain and fluted shafts in sizes 8"x8' through 12"x12'; larger sizes are only available with plain shafts.   Caps and bases for columns 8" in diameter through 12" in diameter are manufactured from high density polyurethane and fit around the load-bearing shaft.   Fiberglass columns 14" in diameter or greater come with a fiberglass cap, base and plinth.  Dixie-Pacific Fiberglass Columns 16"x14' and larger are manufactured using a unique method which gives them great load-bearing capacity yet makes them very LIGHTWEIGHT.   These products are virtually MAINTENANCE FREE.

All have an architecturally correct taper and bead and are available with a plain shaft in sizes up to 24"x26'.  We have the capacity to produce columns up to 42"x40'.  Call for special quotes on sizes 26" up to 42". 

Subtle Elegance, Striking Beauty.  A LIFETIME OF ENJOYMENT.   When used outdoors, Dixie-Pacific Fiberglass Columns must be protected with at least one coat of a quality exterior paint.  Once painted, they can withstand long-term exposure to severe weather.  To ensure years of beauty and durability, like all other Dixie-Pacific products, each fiberglass column must pass quality control inspections before it is shipped.
