The Hartmann-Sanders™ architectural shop can produce a complete line of architectural wood column

styles and sizes on a made-to-order basis. We oer columns ranging from the timeless architectural

orders to more modern no-taper rounds, squares (plain and panel), craftsman, colonial, and barrel

columns. Columns are available in paint grade woods (nger-jointed pine, redwood, or cedar) for interior

or exterior use, or stain grade woods for interior applications (most common stain grade species are shown

below). We recommend using western red cedar or heart redwood for exterior applications due to their

superior natural weather-resistant characteristics. We can factory prime columns to be painted and apply

asphalt coating for added protection for columns to be installed outside.
