First Bank's standard hours and how to find today's status
First Bank branches typically open at 9:00 a.m. and close at 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, with Saturday hours from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Most branches are closed on Sundays and federal holidays. However, hours vary by location — some branches open earlier or stay open later, and a few locations may have different weekend schedules.
The fastest way to check if your specific branch is open today is to visit firstbank.com, click "Locations," enter your zip code or city, and select your branch. The page will show today's hours and whether the branch is currently open. You can also call your branch directly — the phone number appears on that same location page.
If you need banking services outside regular branch hours, First Bank offers 24/7 access through its mobile app, online banking portal, and ATMs. Many routine transactions — deposits, transfers, bill payments — can be completed without visiting a branch.

How to find your branch's exact hours
Go to firstbank.com and use the branch locator tool. Type in your zip code, city, or street address. The results will show each nearby branch with its full address, phone number, and today's hours. If a branch is closed today, the page will say so clearly.
Calling ahead takes less than a minute and confirms not only that the branch is open but also whether a specific service you need — such as a notary, safe deposit box access, or loan consultation — is available today. Some branches staff certain services only on certain days.
The branch locator also shows whether a location offers drive-through banking, which may be available even if the lobby is closed. If you're in a hurry or prefer not to go inside, this detail matters.
What to do if your branch is closed
If your branch is closed today but you need to deposit a check or move money, use a First Bank ATM. Most ATMs accept check deposits and allow transfers between accounts. The deposit will post to your account by the next business day.
For questions about your account, bill payments, or transfers, log into your account on firstbank.com or use the First Bank mobile app. Both are available around the clock. If you need to speak with someone, First Bank's customer service phone line operates during extended hours — check the website for the current number and availability.
If you have a time-sensitive issue that requires a teller — such as a cashier's check, wire transfer, or account dispute — and your branch is closed, ask the customer service representative whether another nearby branch is open today or whether the service can be handled by phone or app.
Federal holidays and special closures
First Bank closes all branches on federal holidays including New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Some branches may also close on additional state or local holidays.
The bank's website lists all upcoming closures under the Locations section. If you're planning a banking trip around a holiday, check that page first to avoid a wasted trip. Many people discover a closure only when they arrive, so planning ahead saves time.
On federal holidays, ATMs and online banking remain available, so you can still deposit checks or transfer money even though the branch is physically closed.
When you need banking services outside branch hours
First Bank's mobile app and online banking platform let you transfer money between your own accounts, pay bills, deposit checks by photo, and view your balance and transaction history at any time. These services don't require a branch visit.
If you need to speak with a representative outside regular branch hours, some First Bank locations have extended phone support. Check firstbank.com for the customer service number and current hours of availability. The wait time for phone support is often shorter during off-peak hours — early morning or late evening — than during the middle of the business day.
For wire transfers, cashier's checks, or other services that require a teller, you may need to wait until the branch reopens. However, if the matter is urgent, calling customer service can sometimes connect you with a representative who can process the request or explain your options.
Drive-through and ATM-only locations
Some First Bank locations operate as drive-through or ATM-only sites with no staffed lobby. These locations have different hours than full-service branches and may close earlier in the evening or on weekends. The branch locator on firstbank.com will specify which services are available at each location.
If you see a First Bank ATM but no building, that's an ATM-only location. You can deposit checks, withdraw cash, and transfer money there, but you cannot speak with a teller or handle account issues that require human judgment.
