ABOUT WEIDNER FIREAbout_Weidner_Fire

Weidner Fire provides personal protective equipment, exhaust removal systems, breathing air compressors, and loose equipment to fire departments across the western Unites States. Built on durable products and reliable service, Weidner Fire is a division of 50-year-old Weidner & Associates. The company is headquartered in Midvale, UT (located in the central area of the Salt Lake Valley).

We are a second-generation family-owned and operated business. The company's partners are Dave Weidner (president), Brad Colligan (vice president), Mark Weidner (industrial sales), and Troy McBride (fire equipment sales).

Weidner & Associates has provided safety products from Pittsburgh-based Mine Safety Appliances (MSA), the largest safety products manufacturer in the world, to the municipal fire service, mining industry, and a wide variety of industrial customers since the 1980s. In the early 1990s, Weidner & Associates entered into an agreement with MSA to act as their exclusive fire service distributor for the state of Utah.

It was at this time that the company began providing MSA's self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) to some of the major metropolitan area fire departments in Utah, including Salt Lake City Fire Department and Salt Lake County Fire Department (now known as Unified Fire Authority).

As the company began to provide MSA products (gas detectors, thermal imaging cameras, and SCBA) to more fire departments and on a more regular basis, we received requests for products that we didn't carry, such as hose, hand tools, and personal protective equipment. Our customers appreciated our service-oriented approach and were interested in procuring more products from us.

In response to our customers, in 2004, Weidner & Associates created a new division dedicated specifically to firefighting equipment: Weidner Fire. Weidner Fire now offers products from more than thirty manufacturers. While we carry most types of loose equipment and accessories, we take particular pride in providing our customers with expertise in the following areas:

> MSA SCBA (sales and service)

> Bauer Compressors (sales and service)

> MagneGrip Exhaust Removal Systems (sales, installation, and service)

> Personal Protective Equipment: Cairns Helmets, Fire-Dex Turnout Gear, Thorogood Boots, HAIX Boots, and Fire-Dex Boots

Weidner Fire is MagneGrip's western U.S. sales, installation, and service representative. This area includes Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii.
