Colonial Column Flute Specifications
Actual lengths of the flutes for standard configurations are shown in the
accompanying tables. The extra few inches above the base allow the installer
to adjust heights as needed to accommodate the variations in porch heights
and slopes. Custom flute lengths are available upon request, for the same
price as standard fluted columns. Fluting typically ends 4” from the base
on custom fluted columns. If using standard height columns with custom
height columns, it is best to order the standard height columns custom
fluted as well to match the 4” bottom spacing.
