The Tombstone Jack™ is manufactured by Tombstone Jack Inc.
The safest and most efficient tool for lifting and re-setting tablets, tombstones, and monuments upright.
What is the Tombstone Jack™?
The Tombstone Jack™, also known as the TJ4200, is a revolutionary solution for leveling monuments in under 30 minutes. With this system, lifting, leveling, and replacing small tablets, tombstones, and large monuments weighing up to 12,000 pounds becomes effortless and safe. Designed for single-person operation, it requires no more strength than lifting a single piece of the system.
Since 2011, the Tombstone Jack™ has been trusted by a wide range of users, from professional technicians to community volunteers. Remarkably, there have been zero reported injuries, attesting to the system’s exceptional safety and reliability.​
The Challenge
Lifting and leveling monuments can be labor-intensive, risky, and often overlooked and neglected due to the need for heavy equipment, multiple workers, or unsafe manual methods.
The Solution: TJ 4200
Our system is engineered for safety, efficiency, and ease of use:
-Single-Person Operation: One person can level a monument in under 30 minutes, significantly reducing labor costs. With two people, it’s even faster!
-Impressive Capacity: Lifts from 100-3,000 pounds with clamps alone, and up to 12,000 pounds with the lift feet, handling everything from small markers to massive monuments.
-Safety First: Four precision-engineered clamps generate 10,000 pounds of clamping force, ensuring a secure hold without the risks of pry bars or unstable lifting.
-Built to Last: Made in the USA. Requires minimal maintenance; just grease the screws after every 100 lifts for generations of reliability.
A Smart Investment
At under $5,000 delivered, the TJ 4200 quickly pays for itself:
-Leveling 2,000+ monuments annually at a labor value of $100 each equates to $200,000 in preserved monuments.
-Gravel costs $300 for a 16 ton load, per 700 monuments, averaging $0.43 per monument a minimal expense for long-term stability.
-Customers across the U.S. and Canada have proven the return on investment, with some surpassing 25,000 monuments using their original equipment.

Benjamin Franklin famously observed: “Show me your cemetery, and I will tell you the character of your community.” Cemeteries are a reflection of a community’s values, showcasing its respect for history, culture, and those who came before. A community’s character is not just in its people—rich or poor, young or old—but in the collective effort to preserve shared spaces and maintain its heritage. The Tombstone Jack™ is a purpose-built solution that empowers communities to restore and maintain cemetery monuments safely
and effectively.
