Burial Vaults

Most cemeteries within Connecticut require a vault or grave liner for all earth burials. Where a grave liner is an unsealed cement container, a burial vault is a sealed and lined outer receptacle which houses the casket within the grave. Both serve to protect the casket from the weight of the earth and the heavy maintenance equipment that may pass over the grave. They help to preserve the burial plot by preventing the ground from settling.
The open vault or liner is usually set at the graveside before interment. After the funeral service, the casket is lowered into the vault. The cover will be placed over the base, sealed in the case of a vault, and the grave will be filled, compacted, and then seeded.

In addition to basic concrete construction, burial vaults are also available with stainless steel, copper, and bronze reinforcement.

A full price list of Burial Vaults is always available from the funeral home upon request.
