Many of the metal caskets available are known as "protective" caskets. This terminology reflects that they are manufactured with a one-piece rubber gasket that runs around the inner lid of the casket.
Once closed, a locking mechanism draws the lids onto the base and the gasket forms a seal. This protective seal is intended to inhibit the entrance of air and other gravesite elements into the casket.
Many higher quality metal caskets utilize a sophisticated magnesium rust inhibitor process. Metal caskets are commonly manufactured in 20, 18 and 16 gauge metals. Interiors are tastefully coordinated in a variety of materials from crepe to velvet allowing for a range of pricing to meet a wide variety of budget concerns.
The caskets presented are just a few, of literally hundreds that are available. We furnish caskets by the leading companies in the country. If you have any questions or would like to view other models that are available please contact us.
