Memorial Styles - Markers

Flat Markers

Flat Markers, sometimes referred to as foot stones, are generally 4-inches thick. There are several ways to set a Flat Marker.

• Flush without collar: The marker would be set flush in the ground, with no cement collar.
• Flush with collar: The marker would be placed in a cement collar, usually about 5" around the marker, and then set flush in the ground.
• Above Ground: The marker would be set on a pre-cast cement foundation

Beveled Markers

Beveled Markers are generally 6-inches tall in the back, tapering to 4-1/2-inches in the front, or 8-inches tall in the back, tapering to 6-1/2-inches tall in front. Beveled Markers are always set on a concrete foundation; however a matching granite base may be used in place of the concrete foundation.

Slant Markers

Slant Markers are 10-inches thick at the bottom, tapering to 2-inches thick at the top. They are straight-backed and usually measure about 2-inches tall in front and 16-inches tall in back. All Slant Markers are set on a concrete foundation. To add a "special touch", you can add a matching granite "base" between the foundation and the Slant Marker.
