This Pro Value Traditional Columns maple column is a decorative wood column suited to island ends, peninsula returns, and exposed cabinet panels where a full square section and a classic profile are the right fit.
At equal width and depth, this column presents a full square face rather than a thin applied sliver. A split or applied column with a 1-1/2 inch depth reads as trim against a panel; a 3-1/2 inch square section reads as an actual column. That distinction matters at counter height, where the column is in the sightline and the proportions show. The added depth does take a planning step: the island framing or cabinet end panel needs to account for 3-1/2 inches projecting into the space around it, so the walkway clearance gets confirmed before the column goes on order. At 36 inches tall, the height corresponds to the standard counter height used in most kitchen island builds, which is the common application without being a guaranteed fit to a specific finished height.
Maple is a close-grained, even-textured hardwood that takes paint cleanly and accepts clear and tinted finishes without the blotching that open-grained species can show. It is a frequent species choice in cabinetry programs, which is part of why the Traditional Columns line is offered in maple alongside cherry and alder: the column can be ordered in the same species as the cabinet boxes and doors it sits against, finished on-site as part of the same finishing run. The piece arrives unfinished, ready to receive whatever topcoat the project calls for.
The Classic design style in the Traditional Columns program suits projects where the visual language is ordered and symmetrical: raised-panel door profiles, furniture-style bases, and inset or full-overlay cabinetry that draws on period references without committing to a single historic style. A column at the end of an island or at the turn of a peninsula reinforces that language at a point where the cabinetry is most visible from across the room. Cabinet shops building traditional or furniture-style kitchen programs and designers specifying island details will find this column the practical match for that work. It is a decorative piece and carries no structural load.
It is a square section, 3-1/2 inches by 3-1/2 inches. That depth makes it a fuller section rather than a thin split, so it projects 3-1/2 inches from whatever surface it is applied to.
No. It is a decorative wood column with no stated load rating. It is not a structural post and should not be used as one.
No. It is supplied as unfinished maple, ready to finish on-site.
Cherry and alder versions are offered in the same Traditional Columns program as separate items.
Choose this column where the project calls for a full square section at counter height, a classic visual weight, and a maple species that finishes on-site alongside the rest of the cabinetry.
