Our Process
Making Long Lasting Memorial For Your Loved Ones
Each monument begins with selecting premium-grade steel, chosen for its durability and timeless elegance. Our skilled artisans then design each piece, paying close attention to the intricate details that make every memorial unique. The steel is carefully cut and shaped using advanced techniques to ensure precision and consistency. Once the initial form is created, our craftsmen apply a series of protective coatings to enhance the steel’s natural resilience against weather and wear. This ensures that the monument will remain a beautiful and enduring tribute for generations to come.
Customization is a key part of our process. Whether it’s a heartfelt inscription, a cherished photograph, or a unique design, we work closely with families to personalize each monument. Our state-of-the-art engraving technology allows for detailed and accurate reproductions, ensuring that every monument truly honors the memory of the departed. From start to finish, producing steel monuments at Steel Remembering is a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation, dedicated to providing families with beautiful, lasting memorials that fit within their budget.
Advantages of Steel Monuments
Clear and Legible Inscriptions
One of the significant advantages of steel monuments is that grass and other vegetation won't grow up to obstruct the engraved letters. Unlike other materials where the growth of grass can hide or obscure the inscriptions over time, steel monuments maintain their clear and legible appearance, ensuring that your loved one’s name and message remain visible.
Cost-Effective Solution
Steel monuments are much more affordable than granite alternatives. At Steel Remembering, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality memorials that are accessible to families with varying budgets. By choosing steel, you can achieve a beautiful and durable tribute without the high costs associated with granite monuments.
Superior Durability
Water and the elements can break down materials like marble and granite over time, leading to erosion and loss of detail. Steel, on the other hand, is highly resistant to weathering and corrosion. With the protective coatings we apply, our steel monuments are built to withstand the harshest conditions, ensuring they remain intact and beautiful for years to come.
Color Customization
Steel Remembering also offers the ability to add color to your headstone. This customization option allows for a more personalized and vibrant memorial, making the tribute to your loved one truly unique.
Faster Production and Delivery
Our streamlined production process allows us to get your monument ready and delivered much faster than traditional cemetery providers. While a regular monument typically takes 9 to 12 months to produce, a steel monument from Steel Remembering can be crafted and delivered in as little as two weeks. This means that you won't have to wait long to have a fitting memorial for your loved one, providing peace of mind during a challenging time.
