How to get your columbariumQuote >>> Order >>> Manufacturing >>> Delivery >>> Installation
Here’s what to expect with your columbarium order. You provide your design or specification to us. We provide a quote to you and work out any details with you. Then we formalize the quote into a manufacturing agreement. Then we manufacture! On the back end, we crate the columbarium. Next we make shipping arrangements and let you know what to expect upon delivery. Finally we help you or your contractor with the installation. At the end of the process, you have your new beautiful columbarium ready for use.
Quote

- Depending upon the complexity of your memorial garden project, you may use an architect to generate site drawings
- For simpler projects, Architarium can help you solidify your columbarium design.
- Request a written quote. For a full memorial garden, you can provide architectural drawings. For a simpler columbarium, we can generate a specification. If we have done the columbarium design, we will already have the specification.
