This Pro Value Mission Columns bar column is a decorative wood column designed for the raised counter and bar-height cabinetry applications where a standard 36-inch column falls short.
A 36-inch column suits a standard counter. When the cabinetry steps up to a raised bar or an elevated island counter, the column height has to step up with it. At 42 inches, this column is sized for exactly that condition: the raised peninsula, the two-level island, the bar top that separates a kitchen from a living space. It is the height buyers most often discover they need after specifying the shorter version, and ordering it intentionally saves a return.
The chamfered corners are the Mission style's answer to the hard edge of a square post. Rather than rounding the corner into a traditional profile or leaving it fully square in a contemporary one, the chamfer cuts it back at an angle. The result reads as substantial without the visual weight of a turned column, and it coordinates with Mission-style face frames, door profiles, and cabinet details. At 5 by 5 inches, the section is a full-depth piece rather than a split or applied section, so it presents the same profile on all four sides and can be positioned at a true corner rather than only against a flat panel.
The piece is alder, unfinished. Alder accepts stain predictably and is a common cabinetry species in the Mission market, which is part of why this program offers it alongside cherry and maple: the column is meant to be ordered in the species the cabinetry is built from, finished in place, and read as part of the same project rather than a retrofit addition. Because each species responds to stain differently, the right approach is to match the wood rather than attempt to finish a different one to look like it.
This column suits cabinet shops and installers finishing the exposed end of a raised bar peninsula, a two-level island, or any elevated cabinetry run that needs a vertical architectural element at 42 inches. It is a decorative applied column and carries no structural load. Homeowners specifying a kitchen renovation and designers working Mission-style projects will also find it useful as the correct piece to call out when counter height is above standard.
It corresponds to the common raised-bar counter height. If the cabinetry is at standard 36-inch counter height, the 36-inch version of this column is the one to specify instead.
Full section. At 5 by 5 inches, it has the same depth front to back as it does side to side, so it works at a true corner or a freestanding position, not just against a flat panel.
No. It is supplied as unfinished alder and should be finished on-site to coordinate with the surrounding cabinetry.
The Mission Columns program also includes cherry and maple in the same profile. Select the species that matches the surrounding work.
Specify this column at the end of a raised bar or elevated island and let the Mission chamfer detail carry the architectural line all the way to the floor.
