AED Automated External Defibrillator Nite Glo Signs
An AED photoluminescent sign shows where an automated external defibrillator is located, helping staff, visitors and emergency responders recognise essential emergency equipment quickly. It is used on walls, doors and glazing where the AED is nearby and visibility still matters if lighting drops or fails.
Where This Glow AED Sign Works Best
Fit it where people first look for the defibrillator, such as above the unit, on the door to the room, beside glazing or on the nearest wall facing the approach. It is most effective where the AED is close by but could be missed in corridors, receptions, sports areas or shared workspaces.
Viewing Distance In Metres And Feet
The 210 x 148 mm size suits closer viewing at around 1 to 3 metres (3 to 10 feet), the 297 x 210 mm size is better at roughly 3 to 6 metres (10 to 20 feet), and the 420 x 297 mm size is more suitable where you need earlier recognition from about 6 to 10 metres (20 to 33 feet).
What This Sign Improves Once It Is In Place
When this sign is fitted in a clear line of sight, it helps people recognise the AED position faster and reduces hesitation at the point where urgent action is needed. That becomes even more valuable when normal lighting is poor or interrupted.
- ✅ Faster recognition of the defibrillator position in darker conditions
- ✅ Clearer emergency equipment identification for everyone on site
- ✅ Less delay when a defibrillator is urgently needed

How To Choose The Best Setup For This Glow AED Sign
- ❌ Fixing it too low or among cluttered wall information
- ❌ Using the smallest size where the first view is several metres away
- ❌ Positioning it where an open door or furniture blocks visibility
- ❌ Do not rely on this sign alone if the AED is around a turn or along a longer route
- ❌ Do not choose a glow sign for brightness alone if the real issue is poor placement
- ❌ Do not use rigid plastic unless the fixing method suits the surface available
- ✅ Choose polyester for smooth doors, glazing and other clean flat surfaces
- ✅ Choose rigid plastic where you want a firmer face and a more substantial finish
- ✅ Choose the larger sizes where earlier recognition matters across wider areas
Questions People Ask About Nite-Glo AED Signs
What does this AED sign tell you? It shows where the automated external defibrillator is located, using a clear emergency equipment symbol and text that can still be easier to see when lighting is reduced.
When should you choose a photoluminescent AED sign instead of a standard version? Choose it where lighting could fall during an incident, where corridors or shared areas become darker at night or where you want extra reassurance that the AED position remains easier to spot.
Which size should you use? Use the smaller size for close viewing on doors, cabinets and tighter approaches, the middle size for general wall positions and the largest size where people need to recognise the sign earlier across wider spaces.
Is this sign enough on its own? It is enough where the defibrillator is already on the main line of sight. If the AED sits around a corner or deeper into a building, add extra directional signs before this final location sign.
Should you choose polyester or rigid plastic? Polyester suits smooth flat surfaces where self-adhesive fixing is useful, while rigid plastic is a better choice where you want a firmer sign face for a more substantial finish.
