Fire Emergency Services Patch — Order This Eagle, Hose and Bell Badge
Design S1213A at a glance
A badge-shaped patch in just navy and gold, with an eagle spread above a coiled hose and nozzle, crossed ladders and an alarm bell. The lettering holds the department name, a service title, a founding year and a unit name, all of which restitch to yours. The tools-of-the-trade emblem tells anyone at a scene that this crew pulls hose and throws ladders for a living.

About this eagle, hose and alarm bell fire badge
Two thread colors carry this entire badge, and that restraint is the reason it looks like issued insignia: gold on navy has been a fire service pairing for generations. The eagle sits on top as the guardian, while the coiled hose, crossed ladders and alarm bell below it show the working side of the job. With so few colors, each tool keeps clean edges even at a 3-inch size.
Customize it to fit your company: write your department name and service title in the lettering, change the unit line to engine, truck or rescue, or add red to the bell for a third color at no art charge. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Fire emergency services patch questions
Can we add red to this two-color design?
Yes. Red is a common third color on the alarm bell or the nozzle. Mark it in the markup tool and your 4-hour mockup shows the three-color version.
Can the unit line say engine, truck or rescue instead?
Yes. Every line of lettering — department name, service title, year and unit — restitches to your exact wording, or can be removed.
Will the hose coils and ladder rungs hold detail at small sizes?
At 3 inches and up, yes. Below that we simplify the coils and rungs slightly on your proof so the stitching stays clean, and you approve it first.
Is metallic gold thread available?
Yes. Metallic gold works well on the eagle, bell and border for dress uniforms; standard gold thread is the better choice for daily station wear.
How do I show you our changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form to circle elements, pin numbered notes and switch colorways. Your marked-up design attaches to the quote automatically.
Need a different fire emblem, or the whole catalog?
If tools of the trade aren't the look your company wants, the fire department patch designs beyond this eagle, hose and alarm bell badge include Maltese crosses, helmets and apparatus rounds. Pricing out embroidered against woven for a dress uniform, or starting from your own art? The patch overview covering two-color fire badges, materials and minimums walks through every option.
