Architectural Wood Columns

Architectural wood columns range from the timeless architectural orders, all-tapered, plain or fluted styles. Columns are available in paint grade, finger-jointed wood species (pine, redwood, or cedar) for interior or exterior applications or stain grade woods for interior applications. Wood columns are load bearing, but PermaCast columns can hold a larger load.

Fypon Craftsman Cove Trimmable Crosshead

Crossheads are a decorative unit that go above the door unit. Fypon developed a solution for crossheads that are too long or too short in the field. Trimmable crossheads make it easy during field application because they are easily adjusted in length and can be customized for a door, window, or garage opening. The Craftsman Cove Crosshead is a trimmable crosshead profile.

After trimming, an end cap needs to be attached to the sides to finish off the look.

When attached, the end caps overlap the crosshead the size of the rabbet on the back side of the end caps.


The part number for the craftsman cove trimmable crosshead is CHCCWWXHBT where:

  • CH = Crosshead
  • CC = Craftsman Cove
  • WW = Width
  • H = Height
  • BT = Bottom trim

The part number for the craftsman cove trimmable crosshead end cap is CHCCWXHBT where:

  • CH = Crosshead
  • CC = Cove Cap
  • W = Width
  • H = Height
  • BT = Bottom trim

When ordering the craftsman cove crosshead:

  • Measure the overall width where the crosshead and end caps will sit.
  • Select the end cap width needed. The end cap should coordinate with the pilaster or moulding on either side of the door/window. If no moulding is used then any end cap width can be chosen.
  • Determine the trimmable crosshead size needed (overall width needed – end cap back surface X 2)
  • Select the trimmable crosshead that will work.

Fypon Louvers

Fypon manufactures two types of louvers both of which are made of polyurethane. Decorative louvers are a solid one-piece design that have closed, non-ventilating slats which do not allow air to pass through. Functional louvers feature slats with angles to help protect interiors from precipitation, insects, dirt and other unwanted elements, yet provide the additional airflow needed to help reduce heat buildup. The inside of the functional louver has a non-corrosive screen that helps keep insects out, while allowing airflow between the slats.

Cathedral Louver

Eyebrow Louver

Peaked Louver

Triangle Louver

Round Louver

Half-Round Louver

Vertical Louver

Oval Louver

If you are ordering a functional louver, you should order a louver that is approximately 2” larger than your rough opening on all sides of the louver. This will allow you to attach the louver to the substrate through the brickmould edge.

Accessory pieces add style and beauty and are available for most louver styles. Keystones and trim pieces are available, pre-attached to standard products as fabricated items. Keystones and trim can also be ordered as unattached accessories by listing the matching part numbers as a separate line item on your order.

Therma-Tru Impact Door System

Therma-Tru offers impact-rated doors and glass that can be used to meet high-wind and coastal region codes and regulations. These offer excellent performance in extreme weather conditions while providing added protection. All impact-rated doors pass a large missile impact test where Therma-Tru blasts a 9 pound 2” x 4’ stud into the doors at 34 mph to prove they are the better choice for strength. It is important when it comes to impact door usage that building code requirements are reviewed in the area of purchase to ensure all codes are met.

Any impact rated unit must be created as a boxed unit. The following are general requirements for Therma-Tru Impact Door Systems:

  • 6/8 Door: 2-1/2” screws through the stile and into the top and bottom rails
  • 8/0 Door: #9 X 3″ PFH screws through all four corner
  • Door: Fiber-Classic or Smooth-Star Glazed (Glass) Doors Only

Parallel Dimensions on Taper Columns



Parallel Dimensions are used to specify where the column begins to taper.

The measurement from the bottom of the column shaft to the point where the taper begins determines how much a column can be shortened before the base begins to fit loosely.

Filler and caulking may be used to fill the gap between the base and shaft if it is necessary to shorten the column beyond the parallel dimension.
