AED Automated External Defibrillator Corridor Sign
A double-sided AED corridor sign is used to show exactly where your automated external defibrillator is located. It helps staff, visitors and responders identify lifesaving equipment quickly in indoor corridors and open areas, so valuable time is not lost during a cardiac emergency.
Where This AED Corridor Sign Works Best
Install this sign above or close to the defibrillator in indoor corridors, junctions, long passageways and wider open circulation areas where people may approach from either direction. Its double-sided format is most effective where a flat wall sign could be missed until someone is already alongside the cabinet.
Suggested Viewing Distance
As a practical guide, this 150 x 450 mm corridor sign suits short-to-medium indoor viewing distances of around 4 to 9 metres, depending on lighting, wall height and how visually busy the area is. Keep it within normal sightlines so the message is picked up early, not at the last second.
What This Sign Helps You Achieve
Once fitted in the right position, this corridor sign makes the defibrillator easier to spot from both directions, reduces hesitation in an emergency and helps your first-aid setup feel clearer and more organised for everyone using the building.
- ✅ Faster visual identification of the AED point

Choosing the Right Position and Format for This AED Sign
- ❌ The AED is in a corridor with traffic from both directions
- ❌ You need the sign seen before someone reaches the cabinet

- ❌ A flat wall sign already gives clear long-range visibility
- ❌ Headroom or corridor width makes projection unsuitable
- ✅ Mount close to the actual AED position, not far along the route
- ✅ Keep the bracket high enough to stay visible without obstructing movement
- ✅ Choose a glow-in-the-dark version instead where reduced lighting is a concern
AED Automated External Defibrillator Corridor Sign Questions Answered
What is an AED corridor sign? It is a projecting double-sided sign used to show where an automated external defibrillator is located, especially in corridors and indoor routes where people may approach from either side.
When should you choose a corridor sign instead of a flat wall sign? Choose this format when the AED is positioned in a hallway, junction or open indoor route where early side-on visibility matters more than front-on reading from one direction only.
Where should this AED sign be fitted? It should be mounted above or near the defibrillator at a point where people can spot it before they reach the cabinet, not only once they are standing underneath it.
