This Pro Value Metro Cam Bar Column is a decorative wood column in cherry, sized for the raised-bar height that separates a kitchen bar counter or tall island from standard counter runs.
The 42 inch height is the standard for raised bar counters and tall island overhangs, a full 6 inches above the 36 inch counter height the other columns in this program serve. That distinction matters at the design stage: a column specified for a standard counter reads too short at a bar counter, and a buyer who mixes them on the same island ends up with a visible height break at the transition. At 42 inches this column aligns with the finished counter plane on a raised section without requiring field cuts or blocking to make up height.
At 5 inches wide and 5 inches deep, this column presents as a fuller section rather than a split or applied half. That depth means it reads as a freestanding element at the end of an island or a peninsula, rather than a thin appliqué against a panel. The species is cherry, supplied unfinished, which lets the finisher match or coordinate it with the surrounding cabinetry rather than working around a pre-applied color. Cherry is offered here alongside maple and alder in the Metro Columns program, so the column can be selected to sit in the same species as the cabinet boxes and doors it accompanies.
Cabinet shops and contractors finishing a kitchen with a raised bar section will find this column at the right height for the application without modification. Designers specifying an island with a bar overhang can call it out by species and series to coordinate with the broader Metro Columns program. It is a decorative column and is not designed or rated to carry structural load. For any application where the column must support a countertop overhang, a rated structural support is the correct product.
42 inches corresponds to raised-bar counter height, where a standard 36 inch column would fall short of the finished counter plane. Specify this one wherever the counter surface runs at bar height.
It is a fuller section at 5 by 5 inches, not a split or applied half. It can stand at an island end rather than being glued flat against a panel.
No. It is a decorative wood column with no rated load capacity. It is not a structural post.
The Metro Columns program includes maple and alder versions. Check the other SKUs in the series for the species that matches your cabinetry.
When the design calls for a raised bar rather than a standard counter, this 42 inch cherry column lands at the correct height and holds the fuller section proportions the end of an island or peninsula needs.
