At Shamrock Gear and Repair, we pride ourselves in the fact that many times, when we receive calls asking if we have received fire gear ensembles for repairs, we are able to respond by saying “We cleaned, inspected, made all repairs, and shipped it back already.”  Many times customers are expecting us to receive fire gear for repair a day or two after we have already completed work on the turnouts.  This ability to service gear quickly is one of the reasons that fire departments, oil refineries, and industry continue to contact us for their fire gear cleaning, inspection, and repair.  Your fire turnout gear does your firefighters no good while it sits on a shelf waiting for repair.  Your fire gear does Shamrock Gear no good sitting on a shelf.  For these reasons, we skip the shelf that many repair facilities use.  We see what needs done to your fire gear, and we do it then ship it back to you immediately.

Do you measure your fire gear repair facility’s turnaround time in days, or do you measure it in weeks or months?  Shamrock Gear customers measure turnaround time in days.  We cannot control shipping companies, but we do control our operations.  If you would like to talk to us about our fire gear cleaning, inspection, and repair programs, including our turnaround times, call us at 330-313-1220.

Does your department have a set of fire gear that needs altered? Call us to do it. We at Shamrock Gear and Repair can alter your bunker gear.

Some of the alterations that we routinely perform on fire turnout gear are:

• Adding Microphone Tabs
• Adding Flashlight Holder
• Lengthen Fire Gear Jackets
• Lengthen Sleeves on Turnout Coat
• Shorten Turnout Coat Sleeves
• Shorten Turnout Coat
• Add Radio Pocket to Fire Gear Jacket
• Take In Turnout Gear Waist
• Increase Turnout Gear Waist Size
• Add Spanner Pockets
• Lengthen Fire Gear Trousers
• Shorten Fire Gear Trousers
• Add Harness Loops

This is not an all inclusive list of fire gear alterations that we can do at Shamrock Gear and Repair.  If you have fire gear that needs altered, call us today at 330-313-1220.

Your loved one is having a medical emergency.  You call for an ambulance.  The few short minutes it takes the squad to respond seems like an eternity.  You finally hear the siren and see the lights.  The squad slows and keeps on moving as if they can’t find you or your house.  What’s wrong with them?  Are they lost or just stupid?  The answer is neither! 

In the darknes, on streets or in neighborhoods that may not be well lit, it can be very difficult for safety personnel to locate the proper address.  They may be on the correct street but the house numbers may not be well marked if at all.

Don’t make them guess when minutes count!  The use of a Reflective Address Sign can make all the difference.  These 911 Signs have high visibility even in the darkest of nights.  Make it easy for those you need- when you need them.

They ship them anywhere in the lower 48.

If you find your fire turnout gear contaminated after an incident, call us for direction. Many people do not know exactly what to do if their fire gear is contaminated. Proper handling of the fire turnout gear can prevent damage if your fire gear is contaminated. We are able to remove many contaminates from fire gear without damaging the bunker gear. These contaminates of fire gear can be anything from blood, diesel fuel, oil, tar and paint. If your fire gear is contaminated with any of these, or other contaminates, call us at 330-313-1220.

At Shamrock Gear and Repair LLC, we get several calls every week asking us for fire turnout gear inspection forms.  We have decided to add these forms online so that they are available to you anytime you need them.  At Shamrock Gear and Repair, we are all about firefighter safety, so if you need fire gear inspection forms after an incident, you should not have to wait until we open our doors in the morning to get them.

Here is a link to the Fire Gear  Jacket Inspection Form.

We hope that these inspection forms will help you during your fire gear inspection.  Remember that you may always call us at 330-313-1220 with any questions.  We are here to help firefighters.  We are a firefighter owned and firefighter operated company.

Fire coat after removing Tar & Oil

Fire coat covered in Tar & Oil

Recently we received a set of fire gear that was coated in a thick tar-like, crude oil residue.  It stunk, it was sticky, and it needed serious ensemble cleaning.  With some time, effort, patience, and the right combination of elbow grease and cleaning agents, we were able to get the fire gear elements in shape to return to service.
