Cemetery Guide

Cemetery Compliance Guide

Cemetery Regulations

New Jersey cemeteries set maximum monument width limits that are particularly relevant to double headstones. Before designing your companion stone, NJ Companion Stones confirms the maximum permitted width at your specific cemetery, along with all other applicable regulations. Every dimension of your monument is built to those specifications.

Foundation Requirements

Double headstones require wider concrete foundations than single monuments. Our installation crew pours foundations to the cemetery's specified dimensions and depth, with particular care in leveling the wider base before the stone is set.

Religious Cemetery Considerations

Many faith-based cemeteries in New Jersey have policies about pre-planned double headstones where one partner is still living. NJ Companion Stones is familiar with these conventions and confirms the appropriate approach for your cemetery before any design decisions are finalized.

Our Collection

Our Headstones Collection

Companion / Double Headstone

Double headstones from NJ Companion Stones are available in three configurations suited to New Jersey cemeteries. The single wide die — one piece of granite with both inscriptions and a central design element — is the most unified form and the most common choice for married couples. The paired upright configuration uses two matching stones on a shared base, each carrying one person's full inscription; it works well for families with larger inscriptions or plots with constrained width. The companion flat marker is used in lawn-section cemeteries and is available as a single wide flat stone or two coordinated flat stones set side by side. All three formats are available in upright, slant, and flat styles and are produced from American-made granite to the cemetery-compliant specifications confirmed for your receiving institution before production begins. Design consultations are conducted in English, Russian, or Polish at our Morris County showroom or by phone. A scaled drawing showing both panels is produced for your approval before any production step begins.

Granite Options

Granite for double headstones is selected with attention to how the material reads across a wider surface. India Black is the most uniform option — both panels read as a single, consistent surface. Mountain Gray shows natural crystalline variation that some families find adds warmth and individuality to the composition. Dakota Mahogany carries a warm reddish-brown tone particularly suited to traditional and family-focused designs. All American-made granite options are available for comparison at our Morris County showroom.

Custom Design Process

Design for a double headstone at NJ Companion Stones begins by understanding the relationship the stone will represent. Consultations in English, Russian, or Polish, at our Morris County showroom or by phone, gather both individuals' details, the family's design preferences, and the cemetery's dimensional requirements. A scaled drawing of both panels and all design elements is produced for your approval before any carving begins.

Our Process

Our Hand-Carving Process

Every double headstone passes through NJ Companion Stones's six-stage production process. Consultation: we gather all details about both individuals and the cemetery's requirements. Design drawing: we produce a scaled layout of both panels for your approval. Material preparation: the American-made granite slab is inspected for uniformity across the full width. Hand-carving: both panels, the central design element, borders, and symbols are carved by our artisans. Finishing: letter fills, polish, and inspection against the drawing. Installation: delivered to the cemetery, wider foundation prepared by our crew, stone set and leveled, installation photographed.

What Families Say

New Jersey families have entrusted us with their memorials for three generations.

“We wanted one stone for both of my parents — something that felt like the two of them together. NJ Companion Stones designed a double headstone with their names beside a carved magnolia blossom that had meaning for our family. It is deeply personal and beautifully made.” — Nancy, Middlesex County NJ
