Turncraft Exclusive Products

Timesaver Cap and Base

Round Poly-Classic columns can also be ordered with our Timesaver Cap and Base system, which offer the easiest and quickest installation in the industry. Timesaver caps and bases are made from fiber-reinforced recycled ABS and are extremely strong, and durable, and offer excellent paint adhesion.

Timesaver Railing Adapter Bracket

Attach your railing to your round column’s decorative base with ease! Our Timesaver Railing Adapter Bracket is an attractive attachment to Tuscan bases. Offered in 2 sizes, they can be used with just about any railing system on the market.

Copper or Aluminum Flashing

Turncraft now offers real flashing for our most popular sizes of Poly-Classic columns with Tuscan caps, available in either copper or aluminum. Flashing is 3/4" larger than abacus size, to be folded over the edges of the cap, held in place with construction adhesive.

Installation Kit

Make installation of structural Poly-Classic columns easy! Our install kit consists of 4 ABS brackets and fasteners required for standard installation (2 for top of column and 2 for the bottom). When installed, the cap and base will completely conceal these brackets and hardware.

Split Kit

Each kit contains six nylon locking straps with 1/8” spacers and one quart of automotive body filler. For columns over 12 foot in height, two kits will be required per column. We recommend using an abrasive (Carborundum or similar) or carbide blade to trim the shaft. Split columns are not load bearing.

Turncraft Decorative Capitals

Want to add an extra ornate flare to your columns? The Fiberglass-Reinforced Polymer Series offers optional architectural reproduction capitals that capture the splendor and classic beauty of Greek, Roman, and European Renaissance architecture.
