Ground Niches

Cremation ground niches complement columbarium niches and create choice of inurnment locations within a memorial garden. They protect urns much better than direct burial in the ground. This stainless steel turnkey ground niche system designed and produced by Architarium will withstand harsh in-ground conditions much better than masonry. No excavation is required at the time of a funeral. No lawn or landscaping is disturbed. Most importantly, the location and occupant(s) of each niche are well marked. Misplacing an urn can be costly.

The ground niche dimensions are precision made with Amada® robotics for quick and cost-effective installation. Face plates are made of granite for minimal maintenance and consistent appearance over time. The ground niches have features to deal with the moisture inherent in ground burials.

The prefabricated ground niches based on our highly designed columbarium system. This system is state-of-the-art itself, with specific features for site design, installation and maintenance. Any configuration is possible. Architarium’s ground niche design is very configurable. It allows both independent ground niches and a group of interlocked ground niches, whichever your memorial garden design requires. A group of ground niches can be inter-connected in any configuration.

Ground niches have specific structural challenges due to their potentially harsh environment. Whether and how these challenges are addressed will affect usage and durability. As a result, it is important to use a well designed ground niche system.
