Walk-In Mortuary Coolers
Walk-In Mortuary Coolers Built to Fit Your Space
When you need storage for six or more bodies, a walk-in mortuary cooler gives you more capacity, better access, and room to grow. AWIC designs each walk-in to your floor plan, builds it in the USA, and supplies the rolling racks to go inside. It's one of our full range of mortuary coolers.
When a walk-in beats body boxes
Past four bodies, one walk-in can be better value than several body boxes. Compare quotes for both.
Rolling racks and spare floor space let you add capacity fast during peak months or emergencies.
Staff can enter the cooler, check identification, and move bodies without unloading a shelf.
Cam-lock panels let us expand or reconfigure the room later instead of replacing it.
Need 2 to 4 spaces? A body box may be all you need.
Rolling body racks, made by AWIC
We manufacture end-loading rolling body racks to suit your room and case volume, and we can work with racks you already own.

It's a good fit for smaller rooms. For larger facilities, we build larger chambers with oversized entrance doors, laid out to your floor plan.
Built around how you load
Doors sized for cots and gurneys
Our standard mortuary door package is a 36" x 76" UL-approved “Super-Door” with three heavy-duty chrome Kason hinges, a self-closing door, and an aluminum diamond-tread kick plate.
For larger cots, carts, and racks, we offer wider swing doors and sliding doors. Tell us the size of your widest cot or rack, and we'll size the opening to suit.
Floor options
- Floorless with NSF cove base. The cooler sits on your existing level concrete floor. The sealed, curved base makes washdown easy, and racks roll straight in.
- Insulated floor. Required for freezers, and an option for any cooler. It takes up about 4¾" of interior height, so ask us to raise the box if headroom matters.
- Ramps. An exterior ramp smooths the transition for cots and racks.
Indoor or outdoor
Indoor walk-ins fit into a prep room, garage, or basement.
Outdoor walk-ins are built with a heavy-duty, one-piece membrane roof cap, freeing up your interior space.
