Will this columbarium niche system work for our project?
   
Flexible: Our highly engineered columbarium system is available as an insert to a pre-built wall or as a free standing structure. Inserts can be convex, concave, both or even round.
Expandable: Our niche system consists of interlocking cubes which are adjustable to your configuration. It easily accomodates non-standard configurations (ex. asymmetric, curved, etc.). You can also add more niches or sections to your columbarium over time.
 
Turnkey: This system slides into any existing wall or structure that is sized according to our provided specification. Minimal additional work is required to incorporate the system into your structure. 
Durable: The materials and technology used in this system have been proven over many years of usage.
All-weather: Powder coated aluminum with stainless hardware ensures that your columbarium will endure for years under the most extreme climates. The use of flexible materials also prevents breakage during climate changes. Granite will withstand inclement or fluctuating weather.
Relocatable: If your plans change over time, urns can easily be removed and the columbarium can easily be extracted from the present structure.
Secure: With hidden hardware, three layers of security and specialized access tools, this system is suitable for public locations.
Affordable: We minimize our overhead to offer you a quality columbarium at a reasonable cost. Our centralized location in Texas also makes shipping cost-effective.
   
What are the individual niches like?
Cubical: The niche is the standard 12"x12"x12". It is small enough to accomodate multiple niches in a limited space but large enough to accomodate multiple urns and personal mementos.
Unobstructed: The cubical niche shape allows any urn up to 11" to be used. Some columbarium systems require use of a specific urn or industrial container.
   
Will the face plates look right in our environment?
Appearance: We specifically selected granite which is beautiful and formal. It also ages well over time.
Cost-Effective: Our materials are specially selected to minimize maintenance costs for labor or materials. Metals and man-made materials change in appearance and require maintenance over time.
Color and Material Matching: We can try to help you find a granite that matches or complements your architecture or a granite already in use in your environment.
   
How will our face plates get engraved? 
Choice of Engraver: The face plates can be returned to us for engraving or sent to a local engraver. We include extra blank face plates to allow for off-site engraving. 
Sandblasting: This is our recommended form of engraving (over lasering) because of its depth and ability to hold a paint color. 
Lightweight: The face plates are 0.375" thick and are easy to handle. They are also individual to a niche (as opposed to systems that use one face plate for multiple niches). 
  Guidance: We can give you guidance on creating a standardized template for formatting your face plates.
