THE
STORY
Campbellsville Industries pioneered the prefabricated aluminum steeple, thus "The
Steeple People." Later, to meet the demand for maintenance-free architectural
components, Campbellsville Industries introduced aluminum cupolas, balustrades,
dormers, cornices, louvers, and many more products, and now, "The Steeple
People"...Plus. Today, over 7,000 customers in virtually every state
and many in foreign countries enjoy the beauty and elegance of products from
Campbellsville
Industries.
CAMPBELLSVILLE: Steeples and Cupolas
PROJECTS
Bell County Courthouse
Campbellsville provided the historic and ornate clock tower replica on the Bell
County Courthouse in Belton, Texas. The cupola from the roof upwards, was completely
fabricated by Campbellsville's skilled craftsmen, including: aluminum balustrade
railing, cornices, pediments, windows, louvers and clock dials. The county investigated
replacing the clock tower again with wood, but the construction costs along with
the continued maintenance costs involved with these type of construction proved
to be prohibitive. Campbellsville worked with an Austin architect to design a
cost effective solution by prefabricating the tower in our plant in Kentucky,
where we can control our labor and working conditions. Our use of steel and aluminum
construction with a baked-on Kynar finish, helped to minimize maintenance of the
tower and bring the project into budget.
Huntsville, Alabama
This magnificent steeple contains a 48 cast bronze bell carillon, a heated and
air conditioned carillonneur's room located below the bells, and a 90' elevator
to service the room. The steeple has an inner steel framework, with a secondary
structural aluminum angle framework--all covered with a .027" self-weathering
zinc alloy that will have a slate-gray patina. The 229' steeple is the largest
prefabricated steeple in the world, and was fabricated by Campbellsville Industries,
Inc.--"The Steeple People". Campbellsville assures your church that
we use the same quality materials and craftsmanship in our smaller steeples as
we used for the world's largest prefabricated steeple.
PP-PRODUCT PRESENTATION
THE
CUSTOM STEEPLES
There are those distinguished churches that demand unique and special steeples.
Whether we are called on to create a special design, duplicate an architect’s
design, or reproduce a historic landmark, Campbellsville Industries can meet
the challenge. Our wide selection of metals — aluminum, copper, lead-coated
copper, microzinc, terne-coated stainless, etc. — give unlimited possibilities.
THE
CUSTOM CUPOLAS
Historically, cupolas have often been an important part of many traditional
buildings. Today, cupolas are used to complement a much wider range of styles
and designs. Banks, courthouses, schools, offices, and motels are buildings
that readily accept the custom Campbellsville cupola. Your cupola can be further
accented by clocks, carillon or bell, weathervanes — all from Campbellsville
Industries.
OP-OVERALL PRODUCT DATA
THE STOCK STEEPLES
AND CUPOLAS
Not every building that requires a steeple or cupola demands a special custom
steeple or cupola. Stock designs offer customers economy units with immediate
delivery. Kynar baked-on finishes, anodized finishes, copper, lead-coated copper,
microzinc, and other exterior claddings can be provided for stock designs. The
all-aluminum framework is lightweight, yet rigidly constructed to meet local
windload conditions. Accessories include crosses, weathervanes, finials, clocks,
balustrades, and urns.
THE
CUSTOM CORNICES
An endless variety of shapes, designs, and ornaments are combined to create
graceful custom cornice systems from Campbellsville Industries. The planning
and creation of a custom cornice system is a demanding art, and requires the
skills of artisans and craftsmen from inspiration to completion.
Fabricating processes of forming, spinning, and casting are used in the crafting
of custom cornice systems. A wide range of metals and materials — aluminum,
copper, lead-coated copper, microzinc, urethanes — give unlimited possibilities.
Sometimes, custom cornice systems are provided complete with structural aluminum
framework, ready for contractor’s/owner’s installation.
Frequently, we are commissioned to create a special design, duplicate an architect’s
design, or reproduce a historic landmark. Most any profile and detail can be
reproduced, no matter how intricate. However, options can be more economical,
and sometimes stock components meet requirements.
Preliminary design and consultation to the architect, contractor, and/or owner
available from our design staff. Send us your drawings, sketches, and/or photos
for our evaluation and pricing.
THE
STOCK CORNICES
Not every project requires the exacting details that a custom system demands.
Here is a collection of stock cornice profiles which has been popular over the
years, and is offered in any quantity in lengths up to 12'-0".
Stock cornices are available in .032" aluminum with Kynar 500 baked-on
finishes (white, sandstone, cream, colonial white, ivory, and medium bronze),
20 oz. copper, 20 oz. lead-coated copper, or in .032" microzinc.
Blocking and supports for stock cornices are minimal, and installation is easily
accomplished. The durability of Campbellsville stock cornices provides the owner
savings in maintenance costs. The aluminum cornices with Kynar 500 finishes
have a 20 year life expectancy — far exceeding conventionally constructed
cornice systems. Other natural metals are even more permanent.

Campbellsville clocks give that special service to communities throughout the

Street Clocks
Campbellsville street clocks give unique identity to cityscapes, parks, and
streets. We can create unique and authentic designs for every application, or
reproduce a historical clock and housing for those discriminating applications.
A wide variety of popular designs are also available. Campbellsville artisans
apply their skills in casting, fabricating, spinning, and forming to obtain
handsomely crafted units. Creations from our design department are available
to assist in selecting just the right design and size. A wide range of metals
(copper, aluminum, lead-coated copper, microzinc, stainless steel, etc.) multiply
the possibilities.
Canister Clocks
Campbellsville canister clocks are self-contained units, all wrapped with aluminum
sheet over a structural aluminum frame. Illumination of dials available, and
the aluminum system is also encased. An aluminum mounting ring allows for easy
installation. Canister clocks are best suited for recessed or surface mounted
installations.
A Campbellsville clock system often combines ideally with a Campbellsville
steeple, cupola, or tower. Combination installations are more economical and
avoid installation coordination problems. Write or call for complete specifications.

Dormers from Campbellsville Industries are fabricated to the finest architectural

design and craftsmanship of domes for those buildings that demand exacting design
and details. Whether creating a totally new concept or reproducing that historic

cross, creating a special design, or duplicating an architect’s design,
Campbellsville Industries will arise to the occasion. Special finishes, including
23 karat gold leafing, are available for all crosses. In addition to custom
fabricated crosses, we offer an excellent selection of standard crosses made
from 2", 3", 4", 6", and 8" square aluminum tubing.
FINIALS
Ornamental finials often help complete the point of a roof, steeple, cupola,
or other towering structure. Finials from Campbellsville are fabricated from
aluminum and finished with an industrial vinyl finish, or are fabricated from
copper, left to age to a beautiful patina. Sometimes, finials are gilded in
a 23 karat gold leaf for a special accent. Anchoring systems can be made adaptable
to about any situation, and a lightning protection cable can be provided with
the finial. Custom and stock designs are available.

both plain and fluted units.

redwood, totally clear of defects. Staves are constructed using tongue and groove
