Lawn Level Memorials

Sometimes called a footstone, marker, or lawn-level marker, a flat marker is a memorial installed flush with the ground. Because of their low profile, lawn-level memorials are typically the most economical option, though they offer less space for lettering and design compared to upright or slant memorials.

Lawn-level memorials are commonly installed with either a concrete foundation or our most popular option today—a polished deluxe granite edge. Both options include a mowing border designed to protect the stone and help keep it visible from grass overgrowth.

The deluxe granite edge is a larger-profile granite border with a sanded or polished exterior edge. It is the strongest installation option, allows designs and lettering to extend into the border area, and does not require concrete. A traditional concrete foundation remains available; however, it is not as durable as the deluxe granite edge.

  • Memorial sizing is determined by cemetery rules and regulations, burial space dimensions, and personal preference. Depending on cemetery guidelines, lawn-level memorials may be placed at either the head or foot of the grave, though individual markers are most commonly placed at the foot.

    • Single lawn-level memorials most commonly measure 24" L × 12" W × 4" H, though sizes may vary.

    • Companion lawn-level memorials are typically 36" L × 12" W × 4" H and allow for additional names, text, and design flexibility.

  • Flat markers (also known as lawn-level markers or footstones) are typically the most economical memorial option due to their low profile and streamlined design. Pricing varies based on size, granite selection, design details, and installation options.
