Memorial complexes made of granite - a complete grave structure in a cemetery, which is usually installed on a family burial site with a large area. At the same time, the ritual complex necessarily includes not only granite monuments, but also other products: a granite fence, a table with a bench, facing granite tiles, etc.
To order a ritual granite complex for a grave, you must know the dimensions of the burial place. Usually for a double grave it is 220*220 cm or 250*250 cm (depending on the cemetery of Ukraine). The dimensions of a place for three are approximately: 270*220, or 300*250 (or close to these limits) and so on. At the same time, you should look at the foundation of the neighboring graves, on which monuments have already been installed. If the foundation is raised, then it is necessary to raise the foundation when pouring the concrete base in your case as well. If not, decide whether you will raise a concrete platform or place a monument near the ground. You need to know this in order to calculate the amount of facing granite tiles.
The cheapest option in terms of using stone color is black gabbro. The monotonous black color of the granite gives the complex a strict and classic look. It will not be much more expensive to dilute the black color with gray granite. For example, you can add intermediate stands and tombstones made of gray granite from the Pokostovsky deposit. It is also good to use this stone for the bridge of the fence between the posts. The use of red stone in the complex will lead to a significant increase in the price of the complex, because the red Lezniki granite is the most expensive of all deposits that we use in the manufacture of monuments at the enterprise. However, the red color adds aesthetics and refinement to the design of any memorial complex.
Ordering the memorial complex must be done after deciding on the shape of its details: monuments and plinths. Monuments in the complex are its most important components. If the budget is limited, it is better to save money on the fence by making it as simple as possible (straight posts and jumpers with a cross section of 10*8 cm), but make the monuments themselves shaped or combined. Also, in budget versions of complex structures made of stone, instead of granite tiles, pavement is often used, which is sold in hardware stores, but this option of cladding is short-lived.
