About Us – Town of Kernersville

The Kernersville Fire Rescue Department (KFRD) provides fire protection, hazardous condition mitigation, emergency medical response and rescue services to the people who live, work and visit in our community. KFRD is divided into three divisions, Fire Administration, Fire Operations and Fire Prevention that work together to protect a growing part of the Piedmont Triad. Our department is made up of dedicated professionals who provide emergency service 24 hours a day, every day. Whether a house fire or a heart attack, a car crash or a strange smell, KFRD crews are ready to respond to emergencies from any of the four fire stations strategically located throughout the town. Stations are situated in the community to help us achieve our goal of responding to emergencies in four minutes or less. In addition, we offer a wide variety of fire prevention services that range from fire education programs to fire code compliance inspections.
