Concrete and metal burial vaults protect a casket in different ways, and the distinction is worth understanding before selecting one. A Doric lined concrete vault pairs a concrete body with a bonded polymer liner that resists moisture, giving weight and strength along with a moisture barrier. This is a common choice for families in Dallas, Texas who want dependable protection in a familiar material.
Metal vaults work on a sealing principle instead. Doric builds metal vaults in a range of metals, from steel to copper and bronze, using an air-seal design that helps keep groundwater away from the casket. Families in the Dallas, Texas area who prefer metal often do so for that sealing approach and for the appearance of the material, and Doric Vaults manufactures both vault types so the choice stays open.
