Why Mortuary Facilities Nationwide Choose Us

At American Mortuary Coolers, we don’t manufacture broad-use walk-in refrigerators for restaurants or convenience stores. We specialize in body storage and morgue refrigeration, providing clinical-grade units designed to comply with OSHA standards, biohazard regulations, and facility-specific workflows.

Where generic cooler manufacturers may offer a one-size-fits-all box, we offer:

✅ Mortuary-Specific Engineering

Unlike traditional walk-in cooler brands, our units are engineered for:

Cadaver storage (human and animal)
Slide-out or telescoping tray systems
Gurney roll-in access
Digital temperature control & monitoring
Bariatric storage configurations

Whether you’re a funeral director, pathologist, coroner, or anatomy instructor, our mortuary refrigerators are built for your exact needs — not retrofitted from grocery-grade refrigeration.

🏥 Trusted by Over 7,500 U.S. Facilities

From county morgues and medical schools to rural funeral homes and veterinary labs, our coolers are used across 50 states. We’re the preferred partner for those needing regulatory-compliant refrigeration with rugged performance and zero guesswork.

⚙️ Purpose-Built Designs – Not Repurposed Boxes

Some competitors offer general walk-in boxes with add-on cold systems — often designed for beverages or perishable food. We don’t believe in adapting restaurant-grade coolers for body storage.

Instead, we build every model to:

Withstand 24/7 operation under high ambient heat
Meet temperature-hold standards down to 35°F
Withstand heavy loads with UL-listed wood floors (rated 3,735 lbs/ft²)
Include secure latches, safety release handles, and antimicrobial gaskets

🔧 Nationwide Customization & Support

Whereas other companies offer pre-set dimensions or restaurant-style doors, we customize everything, including:

Interior roller rack systems or tray rails
Door hinge side (left/right)
Compressor type: top-mount, remote, or drop-in
LED lighting, ramps, floors, castors, and finishes

And yes — we ship nationwide, offer white glove delivery, and assist with panel assembly and compressor setup. You get more than a box — you get a fully supported solution.

🔒 Warranties That Mean Something

Our customers appreciate our industry-best warranties, which are tailored to clinical-grade refrigeration:

15-Year Panel Warranty
5-Year Compressor Warranty
2-Year Full Parts & Labor Warranty
Optional Extended Protection Plans

We also provide clear documentation and phone/email access to real U.S.-based support — not third-party call centers.

Dade Engineering Makes Coolers. We Make Morgue Systems.

Companies like Dade Engineering specialize in walk-in refrigeration for many industries — and they may be a fit for groceries, produce, or beer kegs. But if you're storing the deceased — you need a manufacturer that understands your regulatory risks, temperature precision, and operational flow.

At American Mortuary Coolers:

We don’t cut corners on foam insulation, tray strength, or airflow clearance
We work directly with coroners and examiners to refine each design
We offer real-world advice on site prep, air handling, and code compliance
