Article D2223-80 of the French General Code of Local Authorities

All funeral chambers are laid out in such a way as to ensure a separation between the area intended for receiving the public, comprising one or more display rooms, and the technical area intended for the preparation of the bodies.

Access to the funeral chamber for bodies before committal or the coffin is via the technical area out of sight. The rooms in the technical area communicate with each other in such a way as to ensure that the bodies or coffins pass out of sight of the public.

Each display room has a specific access to the technical area intended for the horizontal passage of bodies or coffins.

Each access to the technical area is fitted with a device reserving entry to duly authorised personnel.

L’accès à la chambre funéraire des corps avant mise en bière ou du cercueil s’effectue par la partie technique à l’abri des regards. Les pièces de la partie technique communiquent entre elles de façon à garantir le passage des corps ou des cercueils hors de la vue du public.

Chaque salon de présentation dispose d’un accès particulier vers la partie technique destinée au passage en position horizontale des corps ou des cercueils.

Chaque accès à la partie technique est doté d’un dispositif réservant l’entrée aux personnels dûment autorisés.
