Deafgard Emergency Alarm for the Deaf

What is a Deafgard Emergency Alarm?

A Deafgard Emergency Alarm is a portable alerting device designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. It listens for the sound of a fire or smoke alarm and provides a powerful vibrating pillow pad, flashing LED lights and visual alerts, helping users wake quickly and respond safely during an emergency.

Deafgard provides an effective and dignified way to alert deaf and hard-of-hearing people when a fire alarm activates. Simple to use and requiring no installation, the portable unit can be placed beside the bed with the vibration pad positioned under a pillow or mattress. When the alarm sounds, Deafgard activates powerful vibration and visual alerts to ensure the user is notified immediately. Ideal for homes, apartments, hotels, motels, serviced accommodation, student residences, aged care and supported living environments, Deafgard provides independence while reducing reliance on others during an emergency. Deafgard helps improve emergency preparedness and supports safer evacuation outcomes for overnight occupants. Its portability makes it particularly valuable for travel and temporary accommodation, providing reassurance, confidence and peace of mind for users, including staff who travel, family members, carers and accommodation providers.
