“New to New England But Not The Fire Service”

Since the company was founded in 1947, Alexis Fire Equipment has evolved and grown from a small fabrication shop with the limited capacity to hold only four units at a time, to a sophisticated business that now spans over 55,000 square feet and employs over 80 skilled engineers, craftsmen, and mechanics — a figure that continues to grow. As one of the only remaining family-owned fire equipment manufacturers in the Midwest, Alexis continues to instill the tradition of product excellence, acute customer care, and superior service.

Alexis delivers on the meaning of custom-crafted apparatus. Working side-by-side with each customer, Alexis will construct your vehicle based on your specific department’s needs, and you can view the progress of your truck online weekly. The Alexis team — from the best engineers and draftsmen to highly skilled mechanics and craftsmen — build your truck from the ground up. No standard packages or machine-assembly line. An Alexis truck is as unique as our customers. Never counted as a number. Only as part of the Alexis family and legacy.
