GRP Plastic Door Columns
GRP Columns & Pillars Bristol
Create an impressive entrance with high-quality GRP columns and pillars from Master Plastics Bristol. Manufactured from durable Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP), these decorative columns provide the classic appearance of traditional stone or timber pillars while offering the benefits of modern low-maintenance materials.
Strong, lightweight and easy to install, our GRP columns are ideal for creating attractive porches, entrance canopies and porticos for both traditional and contemporary properties.
Decorative Porch & Portico Columns
GRP columns are an excellent way to add character, elegance and architectural detail to your property. They can be used as decorative supports beneath entrance canopies or combined with roof structures to create impressive porticos that enhance the appearance of your home.
Available in a variety of sizes and styles, our columns can be matched to both period and modern properties.
Ideal Applications
- Front Door Canopies
- Entrance Porticos
- Porches
- Covered Walkways
- Garden Structures
- Commercial Entrances
- Decorative Architectural Features
Plain & Fluted Column Designs
Our GRP columns are available in both plain and fluted styles, allowing you to choose a design that complements the character of your property.
Plain columns provide a clean, contemporary appearance, while fluted columns offer a more traditional and decorative architectural style often associated with classical buildings.
Strong Yet Lightweight Construction
One of the major advantages of GRP construction is its combination of strength and low weight. Unlike traditional stone or concrete pillars, GRP columns are significantly easier to transport, handle and install.
Their lightweight design helps reduce installation time while still providing a robust and durable finished structure.

Suitable for Decorative & Load-Bearing Applications
GRP columns can be used purely for decorative purposes or incorporated into structural designs where additional support is required.
For load-bearing applications, the columns can be reinforced internally using steel supports and concrete infill, allowing them to form part of a structural portico or porch design.
This flexibility makes them suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial projects.
Easy to Install
GRP columns have been designed to simplify installation. Their lightweight construction makes them easier to position than traditional alternatives and allows for straightforward handling on site.
The height of the columns can be adjusted where required using a fine-tooth saw and suitable column packers, making it easier to achieve the correct finished dimensions for your project.
Low Maintenance Exterior Columns
Unlike timber columns, GRP pillars do not require regular painting, staining or preservative treatments to protect them from the weather.
Routine cleaning is generally all that is required to maintain their appearance, helping to keep long-term maintenance costs to a minimum.
Their weather-resistant construction makes them suitable for year-round external use in the UK's climate.
