Family lot features
The granite pieces that frame a family lot: ledgers, coping and corner posts, with the estate memorial they surround. Made to the cemetery’s rules in all 58 granite colors and drawn on one proof so everything matches.
The pieces
Order them with the central memorial and the color, finish and lettering carry across the whole lot.
Ledgers
A flat slab covering the full grave, cut to the grave size the cemetery allows.
Start a design with this →Coping
The low granite border, also called curbing, that outlines the lot.
Start a design with this →Corner posts
Short granite posts at the corners of the lot, often carrying the family initial.
Start a design with this →Family estate memorial
The central upright the lot is built around, usually carrying the family name.
See upright monuments →What is drawn on the proof
Ledger size
Cut to the grave size the cemetery allows, so the dimensions come from the cemetery, not a standard table.
Coping and posts
The height and profile of the coping, and the family initial or lettering on the corner posts, drawn to the lot plan.
Granite color
Any of our 58 colors, matched to the central memorial; we confirm the color on the proof.
See granite colors →Lettering and finish
Family name, inscriptions and emblems, with the finish codes you will see on the proof.

Send a design request
Tell us the cemetery, the lot, the pieces the family wants and the family name. A lot plan or a photo of the lot helps.
Proof and trade quote
Our designer draws the whole lot and returns it with a trade quote.
Approve
Check names, dimensions and the lot plan with the family. The first 2 revisions are free.
Production
Nothing goes into production until you approve the proof. Ledgers take 4 to 6 weeks after approval; coping and corner posts are confirmed on the proof.
Delivery and setting
We ship direct to the cemetery. In Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and West Virginia our own crews set it and file the permit.
Check the cemetery first
Cemeteries set their own limits on ledgers, coping and corner posts, and many lawn sections do not allow coping at all. Check the cemetery’s rules before you show a family options. We need the lot map location before anything is set.
Size and type limits
Ledgers and coping are the pieces cemeteries restrict most often. Ask before the family chooses.
Sample Cemetery Request Form
You fill it in and send it to the cemetery; the cemetery returns the lot details and rules.
Brochures and forms →Lot map location
We need it from the cemetery’s records before we set, so every piece goes where the records say it should.
See the setting standard →Complete the lot on one proof
Lot features are usually ordered with the central memorial and the individual markers, so the granite and lettering match across the whole lot.
