The design flexibility of modern cremation niche construction accommodates various family sizes, memorial preferences, and personalization goals while maintaining the structural integrity essential for long-term preservation. This makes it one of the most attractive cremation storage options.
The Gardens of Boca Raton offers multiple cremation niche configurations to meet every family’s needs and preferences.

Understanding the various types of available spaces helps families select arrangements that serve both immediate needs and future family planning goals.
Our cremation niche inventory includes several capacity options that provide flexibility for growing families.
The appropriate cremation niche size selection depends on family composition, future planning considerations, and memorial vision. Families who choose larger configurations often appreciate the convenience of having multiple relatives nearby, which simplifies visiting arrangements and creates cohesive family memorial displays.
Indoor cremation niche facilities with glass fronts provide families with unique opportunities for creative memorial displays while maintaining the security and climate protection essential for long-term preservation. These glass-front cremation niches allow families to view cremation urns and memorial contents while offering space for photographs, flowers, personal mementos, and seasonal decorations that celebrate important family occasions.
The Gardens of Boca Raton designs glass-front cremation niches with removable front panels that enable families to update displays for anniversaries, birthdays, holidays, and other meaningful dates.
These niches require indoor placement because exterior exposure compromises the glass integrity and the memorial contents. Our indoor columbarium buildings provide climate-controlled environments that maintain stable conditions year-round, ensuring that glass-front cremation niches remain clear and memorial displays stay pristine.
Outdoor community columbaria offer the beauty of natural settings combined with the permanence and security of professional memorial construction. These burial niche installations integrate seamlessly with landscaped gardens while providing weather-resistant protection that withstands Florida’s challenging climate conditions.
