Equipment Services

When Lee & Associates Rescue started out in 1980, we were a primary provider of Rescue Equipment to Fire Departments, Search and Rescue Teams, and Industry Rescue Teams. We quickly established ourselves as a trusted source for Rescue Equipment needs.

While we no longer perform direct equipment sales, we still take advantage of our over 35 years of manufacturer relationships and knowledge to provide the following equipment services:

Sharing our knowledge with you

Through extensive training with many top rescue equipment manufacturers over the years, we have developed a full understanding of the proper use, maintenance, and inspection of state-of-the-art rescue equipment. It is this experience and understanding that we share with all of our customers in every Training Class, every Standby Support job, and every time we work with our customers’ specific equipment needs.

“Lee & Associates Rescue is PK Safety Supply’s preferred vendor for safety training here in the Bay Area. PK Safety has established a partnership operating as a preferred vendor & preferred referral source for Lee & Associates Rescue in the supply of safety equipment including fall protection, fall protection repair, fall protection warranty work and other safety equipment.”

Specific Equipment Training

Lee & Associates Rescue offers a variety of Specific Equipment Training Programs. We work closely with all of our equipment manufacturers to ensure that our customers are trained in the correct use of the equipment they have provided to their employees. An ideal equipment proficiency program starts at the moment new equipment is introduced to personnel. This foundation covers not only learning how to use the equipment properly, but also understanding the ongoing maintenance and inspection procedures.

Our Specific Equipment Training Programs include both older in-service equipment and newly introduced equipment. These training programs can be conducted at your site, a regional training center, or at our training facility. All Specific Equipment Training Programs also include the mandated certification documentation records.

Equipment Rental

We maintain an extensive inventory of rescue equipment, available for rent exclusively to customers that have been trained by Lee & Associates Rescue. After attending our Training Programs, our customers often take the opportunity to utilize our rental equipment. For instance, while waiting on the arrival of an equipment order, our rental equipment is available to our customers to meet the demands of emergent work. This equipment is maintained by our service technicians and can be delivered on site to your location.

Additionally, if needed, we can provide on-site training and standby support to accompany the delivered equipment. One of the most important compliance mandates of equipment use states that the employer shall provide the necessary equipment to their employees so that they can safely and effectively perform their work (at no personal cost), and shall maintain that equipment properly, and ensure that employees use that equipment properly. Lee & Associates provides your company with the confidence that these vital compliance measures are being fully and consistently met.
