Patented aluminum niche

 

Individual granite door

 

Industry Leading Aluminum Niche System

Patented KMI security and vandalism protection system provides significant protection against unauthorized or forcible access to urns.

Each niche has an individual powder-coated aluminum security door which backs the exterior granite door to protect against breakage.

Individual granite doors provide respect and privacy for families during inurnment. Some competitors have a single door that covers several niches creating the problem of a very heavy door as well as exposing unrelated niches during inurnments.

Granite niche doors are light weight, held in place by stainless steel security fasteners for ease of opening and closing.

Granite doors are fully interchangeable, calibrated to the same ¾" thickness. Spare doors are provided with each structure to allow for doors being engraved.

Engineered marine-grade aluminum niche construction allows for endless designs and configurations of structures.

Standard niche sizes are 12"x12"x12" but they have been made larger and smaller.

Our moisture dissipation system provides a continually clean and dry urn environment.

Non tapered niches are dust and insect proof.

Metallurgical reports support the integrity of our system in coastal climates.

Engineered Structures

Our structures are engineered to ensure that they can support any roof style or feature such as a sculpture.

View production facilities

KMI Columbaria have been rated and approved for installation in areas of known seismic activity and windstorms.

The granite is attached to the aluminum using stainless steel wedge anchors. We don’t use any deteriorating products such as concrete, wood, structural adhesive or plastic construction materials that will compromise the structure over time.

All granite exteriors are maintenance free coming in a variety of colors and finishes from the sleek, clean look of polished granite to the rough look of rockpitch.

Structural Pillars are available in various shapes with different engraving options.

Solid granite end panels provide a perfect placement for detailed engravings and personalization.

solid granite roofs  

Columbaria Roofs

Made of solid granite in a multitude of colors and finishes such as rock pitch, sawn, steeled, flamed or polished.

Roof designs are only limited by one's imagination — flat, peaked, multi-level, inserts or round. Choose detailed engravings or an exquisite sculpture.

We can turn your concepts into reality.

structural granite base  

Base

The KMI base is structural granite. The finish can be polished or rough. The shape will vary depending on the structure.

The base is always set on a foundation which is generally provided by the customer. The exact dimensions would be determined according to the project.

We assemble our Columbaria on site. The project can be complete within hours or a few days depending on the complexity of the structures.

Offering a totally “TURN-KEY” solution — you are not responsible for any of the off loading or installation.

Calgary garden installation  

Architecturally Designed Columbaria

Whether your structure is square, circular, rectangle, triangle, y-shaped, curved or a wall, it will be designed to fit your particular site.

We can design a whole “garden” with numerous structures that all flow together through landscape and design to form a beautiful, tranquil place for the final interment.

The advantage of a garden is that it can be done in stages over a number of years.

Without a complete plan at the beginning, it’s difficult to maximize the number of niches available and the space ends up looking random rather than integrated and peaceful

stainless steel rosettes  

Rosettes

Rosettes with tamper proof stainless steel screws are used to secure the exterior granite doors. The simplicity and ease of operation make them the best choice. No complicated hidden hardware that is difficult to use and known to fail.

Rosettes can blend into the background or become decorative features.
