Xtra Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs
Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs are double-sided photoluminescent fire signs that help you direct staff, visitors and contractors to alarm call points in corridors, receptions, warehouses and public buildings when visibility, speed and clear action matter.
Where Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs Should Be Installed
You should install this sign above or beside fire alarm call points where people approach from different directions, such as corridors, lift lobbies, reception routes, warehouse walkways and large open spaces. The projecting shape helps you reduce missed alarm points when sightlines are restricted.
Viewing Distance Guidance for Clear Fire Alarm Point Recognition
Use the sign where it can be seen before someone reaches the alarm point, not after they have passed it. Keep the face clear of doors, racking and furniture, and check visibility from both directions along the route.
| Size option | Practical viewing range | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| H 200 x W 200mm | Approx. 10–15 metres / 33–49 feet | Corridors, junctions, fire point locations and open internal routes |
What Should Improve Once This Fire Alarm Point Sign Is Fitted
Once installed in the correct position, this sign helps people spot the alarm point earlier, move towards it without hesitation and raise the alarm more confidently, especially where a flat wall sign could be missed from the side.

Practical Fitting Checks for Fire Alarm Point Projecting Signs
❌ Do not fit it where an open door hides one face
❌ Do not place it too close to other red fire signs
❌ Do not mount it where shelving cuts the side view
❌ Not suitable as a substitute for the alarm call point itself
❌ Not ideal where only one straight-on view is needed
❌ Do not rely on it if emergency lighting checks are failing
✅ Fit directly above or beside the alarm call point
✅ Check both approach directions before drilling
✅ Keep the sign clean, unobstructed and easy to recognise
Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs questions answered
What are Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs used for? They help you identify the position of a fire alarm call point from more than one direction, especially in corridors, junctions and larger workplace areas.
Why choose a projecting sign instead of a flat fire point sign? Choose a projecting sign when people may approach from the side. It gives better advance visibility than a flat sign fixed directly to the wall.
Is this sign suitable for low-light conditions? Yes. The photoluminescent Xtra-Glo finish helps the sign remain easier to locate when normal lighting is reduced or disrupted.
Where should I avoid fitting this fire alarm point sign? Avoid placing it behind doors, above cluttered walls, near visual distractions or where racking, furniture or equipment blocks either side of the sign.
Does the pictogram help with compliance? Yes. The fire alarm call point symbol follows EN ISO 7010 F005, helping you use a recognised fire safety symbol that is easier for different users to understand.
Xtra-Glo Fire Alarm Point Projecting 3D Signs Features and Benefits
- ✓ Double-sided face for visibility from opposing approaches
- ✓ Xtra-Glo photoluminescent finish supports low-light recognition
- ✓ Projecting 3D format stands out from the wall surface
- ✓ Pre-drilled fixing holes make fitting straightforward
- ✓ Helps people find the alarm point before panic sets in
- ✓ Reduces missed call points in busy or angled routes
- ✓ Gives you a stronger option than a flat sign in corridors
- ✓ Supports clearer fire response for staff and visitors
Alarm point signs for clearer approaches
For a standard projecting alternative, compare 3D fire alarm call point signs where side-on visibility is needed. Useful in corridors, stair approaches and busy internal routes.
If a flat portrait sign suits the position better, choose wall-mounted fire alarm call point signs for simple face-on identification. Good beside call points where the approach is direct.
For nearby fire equipment positions, review Xtra-Glo fire point hanging signs to keep emergency signage visible along the same route. Helpful for corridors and shared escape pathways.
For the complete selection, browse fire alarm point and fire point signs before fitting. This helps you align call point, extinguisher and corridor signage across the building.
