This Pro Value Mission Chamfered Bar Column is a decorative wood column for the exposed ends of bar-height islands, raised counters, and tall cabinet runs built to the 42-inch counter standard.
The height is the first reason to choose this column over its 36-inch sibling. A kitchen island built to a raised bar or counter height typically runs 42 inches to the top of the substrate before the countertop is added. Placing a column at that exposed end at the same height keeps the vertical line continuous and avoids the visible step-down a shorter column would create. Cabinet shops and designers working on raised-bar seating areas, butler's pantries with tall counter sections, or transitional bar cabinet runs will find the 42-inch figure lines up with the common framing height for those applications. It is a common application measurement, not a fit guarantee, because finished height depends on the countertop thickness and base the project specifies.
At 3-1/2 inches wide and 3-1/2 inches deep, this is a fuller square section, not a split or applied half-piece. It presents the same dimension on both axes, which is what gives it the presence to read as a column on an island end rather than a trim accent. The chamfered corners cut back the four edges of that square section, which is the characteristic move in Mission-style millwork: a clean geometry that reads architectural without the ornament of a fluted or reeded column. The species is maple, supplied unfinished, which takes stain and paint evenly and is among the most widely available cabinetry species in this catalog's column program. No finish is applied at the factory.
Cabinet shops building raised-bar kitchen islands, designers finishing a bar cabinet run with a vertical anchor, and contractors installing tall pantry or entertainment center cabinets with exposed ends are the primary buyers. The Mission design style sits in a clean, rectilinear register that reads well beside Shaker, contemporary flat-front, and other low-ornament door programs. Because it is unfinished maple, the column can be finished on-site to match or complement the surrounding cabinetry before installation. This is a decorative piece; it adds the visual weight and proportion of a column without replacing or substituting for any structural post or load-bearing element.
It is a full square section, 3-1/2 inches by 3-1/2 inches. That makes it a freestanding or corner-applied column rather than a flat half-section glued to a panel face.
42 inches corresponds to the common framing height for bar-height counters and raised-seating islands. The 36-inch version of this column is a separate item sized for standard counter height.
No. It is a decorative column with no stated load rating. It is not a structural post and should not be used as one.
The four corners of the square section are cut back at an angle rather than left sharp or rounded. It is the detail that distinguishes this column from a plain square post and places it in the Mission Columns program.
No. It is supplied as unfinished maple, ready for staining, painting, or clear-coating on-site.
Choose this column to close the exposed end of a raised-bar cabinet run with the proportion and geometry of a Mission-style column, finished on-site to match the project.
