You can extend any AEM component. See this topic for more information about extending components: 

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/components/widgets.html

You can also create your own column component:

Hope this helps...

Thanks for reply,

This link is providing OOTB column control, I wanted to customize the OOTB column control component, so that author can select no of rows and no of column and according to it a grid layout should display which should be responsive.

Please find attached screen shot of grid layout

Have you thought about extending the ACS AEM Commons responsive column control, it doesn't provide rows, but could be a good place to start.

You would overlay this column component and then build a custom dialog that would let the author specify both the columns and rows. Then use JS logic to get those rows and columns into the component via the component's JSP.

I am not aware of any current articles that show this use case - however - we will look at publishing an artilce that shows this use case.
