This Pro Value Traditional Bar Column is a decorative wood column designed for the raised bar and peninsula applications that call for the 42 inch height, finished in the character and proportions of traditional cabinet styling.
The two heights in this column program answer two distinct questions. At 36 inches a column reads at countertop level, finishing the end of a standard kitchen island or base run. At 42 inches it reads at bar height, the raised tier of a peninsula, a seating overhang, or a bartop. This column is the 42 inch version, which means it is sized for that raised application. The finished height of the installation depends on the countertop, the base build, and how the column is applied, which the column itself does not determine. It is a decorative applied piece and does not carry structural load.
At 3 inches wide and 3 inches deep, this column presents a square section rather than the shallow silhouette of a split applied piece. That proportion reads more deliberately architectural, which suits a traditional cabinetry program where column details are expected to have substance. The material is alder, supplied unfinished. Alder works well in cabinetry contexts because it accepts stain evenly across the grain, and ordering the column in the same species as the surrounding cabinetry keeps the finishing work straightforward without requiring the column to be painted over a mismatched substrate.
Designers and cabinet shops specifying a bar-height island or peninsula with a traditional aesthetic will find the 42 inch height and the square section the right fit. The Traditional Columns program appears alongside other design styles in the same series, so companion pieces at 36 inches and in different profiles are available when a project calls for them. Homeowners finishing a cabinetry refit or building out a butler's pantry with detailed millwork will find the unfinished alder ready to accept whatever stain or finish the rest of the project uses.
It is a full square section, 3 inches by 3 inches. Unlike a split or applied half-section, it has equal depth and width.
No. It is a decorative wood column with no rated load capacity. It is not a structural post.
42 inches is the column's height. The finished bar height depends on the countertop thickness and the base construction of your installation, which the column does not determine on its own.
The column is unfinished alder, so it accepts stain and finish on site. Exact color matching across separate wood pieces is affected by grain, growing conditions, and the finishing system used, so a test on a sample is the practical approach.
For a raised bar, a peninsula end, or a bartop column that needs to hold its own in a traditional millwork program, this 42 inch alder column delivers the proportions and the species to finish the job.
