Running pillars through a path duplicated hallway

Hey guys. I have a few hallways that ive created with path duplicators. the problem im having is that i want to run a series of pillars through the hallways. unfortunately the path duplicator continues any poly in its template through the entire length of the duplication. im curious if anyone knows a way around this.

i thought about just dissassociating and then moving the pillar polys accordingly but this could prove to be incredibly messy where the hallways bend or increase/decrease in height.

I also figured maybe i could use a digger to just dig out pillars but the duplicator runs the digger through the entire length as well.

im stumped! >:|

Ok. i checked out the elbow option, and created an elbow duplicator inside my path duplicator and dropped the pillars in there. the problem now is that the elbow duplicator creates the pillars quite a ways outside of the hallway even though the pillar polys are still placed with the template?
