Xtra Glo Fire Alarm Call Point Projecting Sign
Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Call Point Projecting Signs identify manual alarm points from more than one approach, helping staff, visitors and contractors act quickly in corridors, warehouses, schools and shared facilities where side-on visibility and low-light recognition matter.
Where Xtra-Glo Projecting Fire Alarm Signs Work Best
You should install this sign above or beside manual call points where people approach from different directions, especially corridors, stair lobbies, reception routes, factories and large open spaces. The projecting format reduces missed call points when someone is moving under pressure.
Practical Viewing Distance Guidance
Use viewing distance as a practical check, not a substitute for a fire risk assessment. A 200mm face is best for close-to-mid corridor recognition, roughly up to 20 metres or 65 feet where lighting, sightlines and obstructions are controlled.
| Size option | Best viewing use | Practical distance |
|---|---|---|
| H 200 x W 200mm face | Corridors, lobbies, open work areas | Up to 20m / 65ft |
What Should Improve Once This Sign Is Fitted
Once installed correctly, this sign helps people spot the fire alarm call point sooner, approach it with less hesitation and understand its purpose even if lighting drops, smoke causes stress or the alarm point is approached from the side.

Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Call Point Projecting Signs questions answered
What are Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Call Point Projecting Signs used for? They help you identify manual fire alarm call points from different approach angles, so people can find and activate the alarm faster in an emergency.
Should I choose a projecting sign instead of a flat sign? Choose projecting when the call point needs to be seen from the side, such as in corridors, reception routes, factory aisles or shared access areas.
Is this suitable for low-light areas? Yes, the Xtra-Glo photoluminescent finish helps the sign remain visible when lighting is poor or after normal lighting fails.
Where should I position it around the call point? Fit it high enough to be seen above the call point, but not so high that the link between the sign and the alarm point becomes unclear.
Does the fire alarm call point projecting sign use recognised symbols? Yes, it uses the EN ISO 7010 F005 fire alarm call point symbol, helping you keep the message clear and familiar.

Xtra-Glo projecting sign comparisons
For a non-glow projecting alternative, compare 3D projecting fire alarm call point signs. Useful where side-on visibility is the main reason for upgrading from flat signage.
If you need a flat glow sign instead, review flat Xtra-Glo call point signs. They suit walls where a projecting sign is not the best fit.
For corridor approaches from two directions, consider double-sided fire alarm corridor signage. It helps alarm points stand out on longer internal routes.
For all related options, browse visible fire alarm call point signage. It lets you compare glow, projecting and corridor formats before choosing.
