About Bunker Gear Specialists

BGS was formed in 1999 by founder John Stafford. After years of offering in-house service in a small warehouse behind his brother's mechanic shop, Stafford moved the business in 2006 to its current location in Gonzales, Louisiana, giving BGS more space to provide state-of-the-art service to clients.

We now provide fire and safety services to clients across Louisiana, with our equipment rentals supporting operations in several other states as well. From convenient bunker gear sanitation services to in-house repairs, we're always looking for ways to better serve our clients. We also expanded our business operations to include Life Safety Systems options such as fire alarms, deluge, sprinklers, fire extinguishers, breathing air cylinder hydro tests and refills, SCBA flow tests and repairs.
