With such an array of memorials available it can be difficult to decide which type of memorial or memorial plaque is right for you. Click on the photos which should give you some ideas and more information on the various plaques and tablets. We can include images and in some case, photos, to make your plaque more personal. We also create the design just as you want it - traditional or modern, minimalist or decorative.
Finding the right words for a memorial plaque can be difficult, so we have put together a page of Memorial Inscriptions |

It also has the advantage of being able to engrave and paint fill, small letters. It can even be cut into unusual shapes. Full colour inlays made from tough anodised aluminium are also available if required.

These signs are ideal for maintenance free memorial plaques. They are very durable - made from 2 ply 3mm exterior grade flexible acrylic which is weather proof and UV resistant. The letters are engraved through the first layer of laminate to show the colour underneath. Lots of colour options are available, all of which are attractive, especially if mounted on a wooden backing board.

These slate & granite wedges or plinths are 100mm at the back and 50mm at the front. This provides a sloping plinth to mount a corian, engraved brass or bronze plaque. Alternatively we can engrave the lettering directly into the granite or slate. Good value standard sizes plus bespoke sizes as required.

We can make a war memorial in any of the materials we use. The cast bronze is superb, very long lasting but the most expensive. For smaller plaques the hand paint zinc with raised letters is somewhat similar, again very long lasting and very effective. Brass plaques are still very popular, with the 3 mm option being the most appropriate. Engraved stone-like corian is more often used than stone itself as we can engrave with more detail than is possible with real stone. New to scene of war memorials are the engraved wooden tablets. The plaque in the image was made from Cast Polyurethane.

Our wooden caskets and urns have been designed for cremated ashes. They are beautifully made from solid oak or mahogany and can be supplied with or without an engraved plaque. These can be brass, aluminium or acrylic laminate memorial plaques. The wooden caskets are perfect for those wanting to keep the ashes of a loved one, although they are also used when burying ashes in a cemetery. They are the most appropriate type of urn for this type of memorial event.

We can supply backing boards in various timbers on which to mount your memorial plaque. When ordering your backing board we would suggest it should be 25mm large than the plaque in height and width.

modern angle iron with a security pin for mounting into concrete. There are also wooden tree stakes and plaque holders for larger memorial plaques.
