Designed around the building
We measure the available space and design the cooler around the facility—not the other way around. The enclosure can be sized and shaped to work around existing walls, ceilings, openings, and operational needs.
Custom site-built mortuary coolers
Prefabricated coolers are manufactured in predetermined sizes and panel configurations. Our coolers are framed and finished on site, allowing us to build around the actual space and create the size, shape, capacity, and appearance your funeral home needs.
Why site-built
A prefab system may require the building to accommodate the cooler. A site-built system lets the cooler accommodate the building.
That flexibility is especially valuable in existing funeral homes, additions, irregular rooms, and projects where maximizing capacity within a fixed footprint matters.
How it is built
Each layer is planned to work together: structure, vapor control, insulation, sealed seams, cleanable metal finishes, lighting, refrigeration, and optional emergency power.
We measure the available space and design the cooler around the facility—not the other way around. The enclosure can be sized and shaped to work around existing walls, ceilings, openings, and operational needs.
The standard enclosure is constructed on site using traditional framing methods, pressure-treated lumber at the base, metal floor plates, and a vapor barrier beneath the wall assembly. A full metal-framing package is also available for an additional cost.
Closed-cell insulation is installed to an R-38 specification around the cooler enclosure to create a continuous, durable thermal and air-control layer.
Fiber-reinforced sealant is applied to concealed seams before the metal liner is closed, helping keep conditioned air inside the cooler and reducing hidden air paths.
Interior and exterior metal finishes can be selected in a range of colors. Sealed LED lighting provides bright, efficient illumination inside the completed enclosure.
For an additional cost, refrigeration equipment can be designed for connection to an emergency-power panel and properly sized generator system. We can also coordinate and install the generator package.
Fully customizable
Every funeral home operates differently. We plan the enclosure, refrigeration equipment, access, finishes, and optional power system around the building and the way your staff works.
Discuss your spaceMaterials and documentation
We select equipment and materials for the project conditions and coordinate the work with applicable building, electrical, mechanical, and fire-code requirements. Listed equipment is used where listing is required.
Documentation for the specified insulation system includes Class A surface-burning characteristics, ASTM E84 and NFPA 286 testing, ICC-ES evaluation ESR-3228, UL file R7813, and GREENGUARD certification. Qualifying materials may also support applicable green-building and LEED project goals.
Product selections, tested assemblies, listings, and required approvals are confirmed for each project and jurisdiction. Certifications apply only to the specific products and assemblies identified in their manufacturer documentation.New cooler · Expansion · Replacement
