The Briarcliff Manor Fire Department (BMFD) is located in Westchester County, NY. The department is 100% volunteer. Messinger.

BMFD consists of 3 Engines, 1 Rescue, 1 Tower Ladder, 1 Utility, 2 Ambulances, 1 UTV, and 3 command vehicles. The Briarcliff Manor Fire Department (BMFD) provides fire protection and emergency medical services to the village of Briarcliff Manor, New York and its hamlet Scarborough. The volunteer fire department also serves unincorporated areas of Ossining and Mount Pleasant. The fire department has three fire companies, two stations, and four fire engines. Its engines include three pumpers and a tower-ladder; the department also maintains other vehicles, including a heavy rescue vehicle. The Briarcliff Manor Fire Department Ambulance Corps provides emergency medical transport with two ambulances. The fire department is headquartered at the Briarcliff Manor Village Hall, with its other station in Scarborough, on Scarborough Road. The Briarcliff Steamer Company No. 1 was founded in 1902 by Frederick C. He became the first chief of the department, founded February 10, 1903. In 1906, the Briarcliff Fire Company was established. The village's municipal building and first permanent firehouse was built in 1914 in downtown Briarcliff Manor. Seven years later, in 1921, the Scarborough Fire Company was established. From 1930 to 1971, the Archville Fire Department was dissolved into Scarborough's fire company, which expanded its fire protection to Archville. In 1936, the Briarcliff Manor Hook and Ladder Company was formed. For the department's 50th anniversary, the village hosted numerous events, including a parade with twelve fire departments present. In 1963, the Briarcliff Manor Village Hall was constructed, again housing the fire and police departments. In 1974, a replacement firehouse was built for the Scarborough Engine Company. The fire department's 75th anniversary in 1976 drew a parade of 650 firemen from fourteen companies. In 1982, one of the most notable fires took place, in Briarcliff's downtown. The fire lasted three and a half hours and took over a hundred firefighters to control. The department also participated in fighting the Briarcliff Lodge fire in 2003, which demolished the 1902 Walter Law-built hotel. In 2010, Scarborough's firehouse was again replaced, doubling its size.

Last night, BMFD members received hands-on training from Signal 73 Fire Training LLC.Training on the setup, configurations, and use of our new Vulka training prop.

The Vulka is a versatile system that can be configured for flat roofs, peaked roofs, metal roofs, garage doors, and many other setups, allowing our firefighters to practice a wide range of realistic fireground skills.

With the ability to quickly change configurations, the prop will give our members more opportunities for repetitions, hands-on training, and increasingly challenging scenarios right here at home.

Thank you to Signal 73 for coming out and getting our members up to speed on everything this new training system can do.

Want to train with us? Join the BMFD!

On Friday evening, members of the Briarcliff Manor Fire Department joined the Ossining Fire Department fellow emergency service organizations, elected officials, and members of our communities at Louis Engel Waterfront Park for the Ossining & Briarcliff 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony.

The ceremony brought together representatives from the Village of Briarcliff Manor, Village of Ossining, and Town of Ossining to remember and honor all those whose lives were lost and forever changed by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to remember the 2,977 people who lost their lives that day, including 343 members of the FDNY, 23 members of the NYPD, 37 members of the Port Authority Police Department, as well as EMS personnel and members of other emergency service agencies who made the ultimate sacrifice while answering the call.

We also honor the many first responders, recovery workers, and others who have since lost their lives to illnesses related to their service and exposure following the attacks. Their sacrifice continues to be part of the legacy of September 11th and must never be forgotten.

For those of us in the fire and emergency services, September 11th carries a special meaning. It is a lasting reminder of courage, service, sacrifice, and our responsibility to honor the memory of those who came before us.

We are proud to stand together with our neighboring departments, local leaders, and communities in remembrance.

We will never forget.
