Xtra Glo AED Defibrillator Signs
An Xtra-Glo AED defibrillator sign shows where the automated external defibrillator is located, helping staff, visitors and emergency responders identify essential equipment quickly. It is used on walls, doors and glazing where stronger glow performance helps the AED remain easier to spot if lighting falls away.
Where This Xtra-Glo AED Sign Gives You The Most Value
Fit it where people first search for the defibrillator, such as above the unit, beside the cabinet, on the approach wall or on the nearest door or glazed surface. It suits corridors, sports facilities, reception areas and shared buildings where the AED is close by but you need stronger visibility if normal lighting drops.
Viewing Distance In Metres And Feet
The 210 x 148 mm size suits around 1 to 3 metres (3 to 10 feet), the 297 x 210 mm size suits roughly 3 to 6 metres (10 to 20 feet), and the 420 x 297 mm size is better for about 6 to 10 metres (20 to 33 feet). Choose the larger size where you need earlier recognition across wider indoor areas.
What This Higher-Glow AED Sign Helps Improve
Once fitted in a clear line of sight, this sign helps people recognise the AED position faster and with more confidence in dimmer conditions. That can reduce hesitation at the point where urgent access to the defibrillator matters most.
- ✅ Stronger AED visibility if lighting is reduced or lost
- ✅ Faster recognition of essential emergency equipment
- ✅ Less delay when people need the defibrillator urgently

How To Choose The Right Xtra-Glo AED Setup
- ❌ Using the smallest size where the first view is several metres away
- ❌ Fitting it where open doors, displays or furniture interrupt visibility
- ❌ Relying on glow performance alone when the sign is poorly positioned
- ❌ Do not choose this as the only sign if the AED is around a turn or along a longer route
- ❌ Do not use a higher-glow sign as a substitute for better placement and sightlines
- ❌ Do not pick rigid plastic unless the surface and fixing method suit it properly
- ✅ Choose polyester for smooth doors, glazing and other flat clean surfaces
- ✅ Choose rigid plastic where you want a firmer face and stronger feel
- ✅ Choose the larger sizes where you need earlier recognition across wider indoor areas
Xtra-Glo AED Sign Questions You May Be Weighing Up
What is the difference between this Xtra-Glo AED sign and a standard non-glow version? This version is designed for stronger photoluminescent performance, so the AED remains easier to identify if normal lighting is reduced or fails.
When should you choose an Xtra-Glo AED sign? Choose it where corridors, shared areas or public spaces may become darker during an incident, or where you want a stronger glow level than a standard everyday sign provides.
Which size is usually the right one? Use the smallest size for close viewing on doors and cabinets, the middle size for general internal walls, and the largest size where people need to recognise the AED position earlier across a wider space.
Should you choose polyester or rigid plastic? Polyester suits smooth flat surfaces where self-adhesive fixing is useful, while rigid plastic gives you a firmer sign face where a more substantial finish is preferred.
Will this sign solve poor AED visibility on its own? Not always. If the defibrillator is around a corner or further along the route, you will still need extra directional signs before people reach this final location sign.
