Design S1412A at a glance
A grey-edged badge shape in navy, grey, white and gold, with a Maltese cross carrying flames and a ladder, crowned by a fire helmet over crossed axes. Lettering holds a district name, a fire district line, an established-year line and a station number — a layout built for a single firehouse that wants its own identity inside a larger district.

About this helmet and crossed axes station badge
Station patches are where crews get to be specific, and this badge gives them every classic symbol in one stack: the Maltese cross, flames and a ladder inside it, and a helmet over crossed axes on top. The badge-shaped outline makes it look issued rather than improvised, and the navy, grey, white and gold palette is cool and orderly — a good match for Class B uniforms.
Order it as shown or tailor it: set your district name and station number, update the established year, or swap the ladder for a hose or nozzle to suit an engine house. 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 station badge patch questions
Can each of our stations get its own number?
Yes. The station number line restitches per version, so a district can order a run for every house from one art. Each version gets its own proof.
Can the ladder be changed to a hose or nozzle?
Yes. Any tool inside the cross can be swapped; mark the change in the markup tool and the proof shows the new version.
Will the helmet and axes stay sharp at shoulder size?
Yes, from about 3.5 inches tall. Below that the proof simplifies the axe heads slightly so the stack stays clean.
Can we update the established year?
Yes. The year line restitches like every other line, and you'll see it placed on the mockup within 4 hours.
How do I show you our changes?
In the quote form, open the markup tool, circle any element, pin numbered notes and test colorways. The marked design attaches to your quote.
