What is a casket handle?

A casket handle is a special kind of handle that is used to help move a casket from place to place. Casket handles are typically made of metal and come in various shapes, sizes, and colors. The handles are typically attached to the top of the casket and can be used to lift the casket onto a vehicle or move it around a funeral home. They can also be used to push the casket along when necessary.

While most caskets come with handles already installed, some people choose to upgrade their caskets with higher-end handles that are more aesthetically pleasing. These can be glass casket handles, irish casket handles, or vintage casket handles like the 1700s casket handle metal. Casket handles are an important part of the funeral process and can help make it easier for friends and family to honor their loved ones in a respectful way.

Variations of casket handles hardware

When it comes to choosing the right ones for a loved one, there are several different casket handle types to choose from. The most common type of casket handle is the traditional "D" or "bar" handle. This type of handle is generally made from brass or other metal and consists of two oval-shaped rings connected by a bar that runs between them. It is usually attached to the lid of the casket with screws or hooks. Another popular type of casket handle is the “fiberglass” handle. These handles are often made from durable plastic materials, and they typically feature a large, rectangular-shaped grip area.

A third type of casket handle is the “twist-lock” handle, which is a more recent innovation in the industry. This type of handle features an ergonomic design that allows the user to twist the handle in order to securely lock it into place. Some of the casket handle parts have a protruding design. These are called casket handle huckles. Huckle casket handles come in several different designs for buyers to choose for their loved ones.
