Business Profile
Johnson Fire and Safety Systems, Inc.,
is a full line dealer of fire apparatus, equipment, extinguishers,
and suppression systems. Johnson Fire and Safety also can provide
training, parts, and service for the products we represent.
Originally, Johnson Fire and Safety
Systems was known as Hurst Fire Extinguisher. The present business
was started in February of 1995 after Bobby Johnson bought out Hurst
Fire Extinguisher and began to expand the product offerings and the
scope of the business.
Johnson, the owner and President of the
company, is a South Carolina certified firefighter and paramedic
with over 20 years experience in emergency services. Immediately
prior to the buyout of Hurst Fire Extinguisher and the formation of
the current business, Johnson had served as Director of a countywide
Emergency Medical Service (EMS) system for eight years.
Present operations include three mobile
service units staffed by four trained employees. Johnson Fire and
Safety Systems is fully insured, and is licensed and approved by the
South Carolina State Fire Marshal’s Office. We are also members of
the Southern Building Code Congress International (SBCCI), and the
National Fire Protection Association. Johnson Fire and Safety also
provides support to various other state and local fire associations
and events.
The business is divided into two
operational divisions. The Fire Extinguisher Division is managed by
Jerry Pierce, who has over 25 years in the fire service, including
serving several years as Chief of a combination paid/volunteer fire
department. Among the services provided under this Division are
Sales/Installation, Mobile Service, Recharge, Inspections, and
Training. Fire suppression systems also fall under the Fire
Extinguisher Division; as well as other services such as testing of
fire hose, hydrostatic testing, and cylinder inspection. Products
such as emergency lights, smoke alarms, and safety signs are also
available.
Bobby Johnson oversees the Fire and
Safety Division. Johnson Fire and Safety is the eastern South
Carolina representative for American LaFrance, a respected
manufacturer of custom built fire apparatus since 1832. We are also
an authorized dealer for International Safety Instruments (ISI),
Chieftain protective clothing, Ranger and Servus firefighter
footwear Morning Pride helmets, Pelican lighting products, Fire
Hooks Unlimited, Able-2/SHO-ME Warning Equipment, Chemguard
Firefighting Foams, Class 1 and Fire Research apparatus accessories,
and American Rescue Technology/Genesis Rescue Tools, as well as
numerous other small and specialty lines.
It is our goal to continue to acquire
lines of equipment that are proven leaders in the industry and that
help us meet the provisions of our Mission Statement, which reads:
