Frequently Asked Questions

A Head Panel is a decorative, cloth covered board fitting on the inside of the casket under the lid.  There many patterns to choose from including patterns for each branch of the armed forces including "United States Veteran."  A Head Panel is a nice way to personalize your casket choice.

There is no truly sealed casket.  A casket with a gasket is considered sealed because it has a shaped piece of rubber around lid that helps protect the inside from the elements. These caskets also provide a screw down lid locking lid in place. Rubber gaskets will deteriorate over time providing no long term protection. A casket that is a non seal has no gasket and has only a latch to hold lid in place. If you want long term protection I would recommend a sealed Casket and sealed Vault.
