A column consists of a shaft with a capital and base. When selecting the column height, please be aware that the height includes the capital and base.
Royal Corinthian columns are superior to the competition, especially when it comes to fluted columns. Instead of choppy and shallow flutes that require enormous amounts of prep time, Royal Corinthian’s flutes are molded into the column, resulting in deep and rich architecturally correct flutes. Furthermore, the capitals and bases that accompany these columns are the same material as the shaft rather than cheap polyurethane or plastic alternative materials that are easy to damage and hard to paint. On top of all this, these columns come with a Lifetime Warranty, which is why we put our trust in the quality of Royal Corinthian Columns.
We sell Royal Corinthian Columns. Royal Corinthian has over 25 years experience in the manufacture of industry specified Fiberglass/FRP columns, previously reserved only for large commercial or residential specification. Royal Corinthian is a leader in quality through reputation, providing a long lasting, sturdy option to the standard “boutique” variety columns available elsewhere. Crown-Molding.com is very pleased to be one of the few online retail stores permitted to offer the Royal Corinthian line.

Please note Columns that surround structural supports are typically split for reassembly so this chart allows for loss due to saw kerf. Columns that are split are no longer considered load-bearing. The inside diameter of decorative capitals is much smaller than the column shaft so the chart below will not work for decorative capital applications. To insure that the column ordered will surround the intended structural support, the column needs to be split by Royal Corinthian and the shape and size of the structural support needs to be indicated on the purchase order. Royal Corinthian will not accept any liability if columns are purchased not split and do not wrap the published structural support sizes. When a column is ordered full round (not split), it is implied that the column will not be used to surround a structural support. If the contractor intends to drop a full round (not split) column around the structural support, the shape and size of the structural support needs to noted on the purchase order at the time of order.

*Inside diameter relates to the shaft only and therefore columns with a Tuscan Capital. Decorative Capitals sit on top of the column rather than sliding over the shaft, thereby limiting the amount of area for additional support. Additional support is only required when a column is split and still needs to be supportive or load bearing. Split columns are not load bearing. Our columns are nominal
