Precast Concrete Pier Caps and Reconstituted Granite/Sandstone Pier Caps augment and protect piers and gate posts. They defend mortar and masonry from erosion and frost damage by deflecting rain water from running down the face of the pier. They will ideally complement the architectural style of the development by tying in with the design of the wall caps and window sills.

Concrete Pier caps will usually project up to 75mm from each face of the pier, depending on whether the pier is rendered or not. Pier caps normally shed water in four directions and come complete with water drip grooves in order to protect the pier from the elements. Advice should be sought from our technical team at the time of ordering, so as to ensure these details are correct.
Standard Apex Pier Caps feature a front face of between 50mm and 150mm.
Rectangular pier caps feature a ridge, similar to a saddle back wall cap, with a sloped finish at each end. This type of pillar cap is often used on boundary walls which are visible to the public.
Circular, Regency and Classical style pier caps can also be provided. Our experienced and professional technical team is on hand to offer advice and guidance, where necessary.
