Mortuary Lifts & Cadaver Racks
Our mortuary lifts and cadaver racks improve staff safety and storage capacity. From hydraulic lifts that eliminate manual lifting to multi-tier cadaver racks for efficient organization, these solutions ensure compliance and workflow optimization.
Efficient cadaver handling requires the right combination of durable racks and ergonomic lifts. American Mortuary Coolers provides all-stainless steel cadaver storage racks and hydraulic mortuary lifts designed for funeral homes, hospitals, universities, and disaster response facilities.
Our racks are engineered with heavy-duty welds, adjustable tiers, and smooth-glide trays to maximize storage and ensure long service life. Pair them with our OSHA-aligned lifts for safer body transfer, reduced strain, and smoother loading into upright, roll-in, and walk-in mortuary coolers.
Whether you need a 3-tier rack for a small prep room, a mobile rack system for surge capacity, or a high-capacity vault rack for long-term storage, we deliver proven solutions nationwide.
Every rack and lift is built to OSHA ergonomic standards, recognized by NFDA and ICCFA, and backed by our BBB A+ accredited service.
