Cast stone, as you need it

Pier Caps

Pier Caps are the stones that cap piers, or gate pillars. They can be a cap on their own, or be a base for a ball finial, light or other feature to stand on. They are used to protect the pier from weather damage, as well as please the eye. They are also used for Balustrading piers.

See the further information PDF iconpiercaps-1.pdf for help with ordering your pier cap.

Our pier caps are usually manufactured to be wider than the pier they fit. The amount of extra width depends on the design, but approximately 50mm on all four sides at the bottom edge is normal. The overall width may exceed this, depending on design.
