How To Measure A Casket Panel Insert

Learn how to measure for a casket panel before ordering or creating a custom memorial insert. A casket panel is the decorative fabric piece placed inside the open lid of a casket, often personalized with a loved one’s name, photo, scripture, theme, military tribute, religious design, or special message. In this video, we explain the simple steps for measuring the inside lid area of the casket so your custom casket panel fits properly. Because casket sizes and interiors can vary, it is important to measure the actual display area where the panel will be placed instead of guessing or using a standard size. Taking accurate measurements helps ensure your design looks clean, centered, and professionally finished. When measuring for a casket panel, you will usually need the width and height of the visible interior space. Use a soft measuring tape when possible, measure from edge to edge, and double-check your numbers before submitting them for design or printing. If the funeral home is assisting with the placement, they may also be able to confirm the correct measurements for you. Custom casket panels are a beautiful way to create a personal and meaningful tribute during a funeral, viewing, visitation, or celebration of life. Whether you choose a floral design, religious background, patriotic theme, angel artwork, scenic landscape, or fully personalized photo tribute, the right measurements help bring the final display together with care and dignity.
