About Us
Safety. Efficiency. Innovation. Expertise.
Our Story
Founded by active firefighters, Hook & Ladder Supply was born out of necessity and passion. While serving on the front lines, they noticed a gap in the market for high-quality, specialized firefighting gear, particularly protective clothing. They experienced firsthand the shortcomings of existing equipment supplies—from the lack of access for smaller and volunteer departments to the absence of specialized knowledge in the vendors they encountered.
Determined to make a difference, these firefighters leveraged their firsthand experience and deep understanding of firefighting’s specific needs and challenges to create a company that does more than just sell equipment. Hook & Ladder is a solution-oriented ally to fire departments nationwide, unwavering in its commitment to enhancing firefighters’ safety, efficiency, and readiness through innovation and expertise.
