Select a Secure Mausoleum Design and Know Your Location
When families create a custom mausoleum design, they think about what would best reflect the family, and how to show their love for those interred within. Few families consider the security of a mausoleum, or the practical realities of a specific location where the private family mausoleum will be built. When considering custom mausoleum design, don’t forget to factor in security and the mausoleum location to create a lasting legacy that withstands not only the vagaries of weather, but of human influence.

A new mausoleum designed to hold 1,300 cremation urns and 1,500 caskets is scheduled to be opened at Staten Island’s Moravian Cemetery in March 2015.
The mausoleum is being built to solve the issue of limited burial space at the 113-acre cemetery, and on Staten Island in general. Plans call for the mausoleum to be a climate-controlled indoor structure with air conditioning, heating, and a security system.
The mausoleum will offer community niches and casket spaces, as well as more private spaces. At the higher end of the mausoleum offerings are three family rooms with windows and streaming sunlight, one of which can hold up to 24 people, and the other two of which can hold 12.
