Individual & Companion Cremation Pedestals

Our cremation pillars are designed for both individual and companion use. These freestanding memorials can be customized with polished finishes, unique cap designs, and detailed laser-etched portraits. Because they house the urns above ground, these cremation monuments are a popular choice for private family estates or specific cremation gardens within North Texas cemeteries. Each pillar is engineered for security and durability, ensuring a protected and beautiful home for your family's most precious cargo.

Common Questions About Cremation Pillars & Urn Pedestals

Many cemeteries in the DFW area have dedicated "cremation gardens" or allow pillars on standard upright plots. As your local experts, we coordinate with your cemetery to verify their specific rules regarding above-ground cremation monuments.

Absolutely. The flat surfaces of the granite pillar are perfect for laser etching, deep-cut sandblasting, and even porcelain photo insets. You can personalize all four sides of the pedestal if you choose.

Both are highly secure, but a cremation pillar offers the peace of mind of above-ground entombment. Our pillars are made of solid granite and are professionally sealed to be completely weather-proof and tamper-resistant.
