Name every granite bench component
- Seat
- Provide seat length, width and thickness. Identify the top, front, back, ends and underside where a particular finish, edge or support interface is required.
- Back or memorial panel
- For park-style benches, specify the back dimensions, shape, inscription field, attachment points and relationship to the seat and supports.
- Legs, pedestals or solid ends
- List the dimensions and quantity of every support. Show spacing, orientation, joints, holes and any carved or polished faces on the approved drawing.
- Foundation or setting surface
- Keep the granite components separate from the site foundation. Confirm cemetery or project-owner rules, drainage, anchoring and installer requirements for the actual location.
Plan finishes, inscriptions and use
- Finish schedule
- Identify polished, honed, steeled, dusted, sawn or rock-pitched surfaces for every component. A finish abbreviation should not replace a clear drawing.
- Lettering and artwork
- Confirm names, dates, emblems, portraits, carving and panel dimensions against the usable face rather than the overall outline of the stone.
- Cemetery memorial bench
- Verify permitted location, overall size, foundation, inscription content, orientation and maintenance requirements with the cemetery before fabrication.
- Civic, park or donor bench
- Coordinate accessibility, public circulation, plaque or donor-recognition requirements and site-owner approval when the bench is part of a civic project.
Prepare a wholesale bench inquiry
- Design reference
- Send the Angel Granites design number, reference image or drawing and explain which shape, support and artwork details must be preserved or changed.
- Granite and quantity
- State the granite color, finish, number of complete benches and whether matching components or future duplicate units are expected.
- Weight and handling
- Request final component weights only after dimensions and stone are confirmed. Plan lifting, unloading and setting equipment around the approved assembly.
- Packing and delivery
- Provide the receiving address, business contact, unloading capability, appointment restrictions and any requirement to label or ship related components together.
