Rotaid™ 24/7

Robust weather protection for outdoor AED cabinets

Every outdoor AED cabinet from Rotaid is engineered to withstand extreme weather while keeping your AED fully operational. Some key features for this are:

  • IP56 Weatherproof Rating: Fully sealed against dust, water spray, and salt-mist.
  • Frost-Protected Heater: Maintains AED readiness down to –20°C, preventing cold-weather battery or pad failure.
  • UV & Corrosion Resistance: Durable materials resist sunlight, corrosion, and high temperatures.
  • Impact Protection: Shock-resistant design protects the AED from knocks, debris, or vandalism attempts.

High visibility & accessibility in defibrillator cabinets

In an emergency, visibility saves lives. Our defibrillator outdoor cabinets are instantly recognizable from all directions, because of their design:

  • Round Design with Prominent AED Logo: stands out from standard rectangular boxes.
  • Multi-Color LED Lighting: ensures visibility day and night.
  • Transparent Door & Guiding Arrows: direct bystanders to open the AED quickly.

Easy installation & maintenance of outdoor AED cabinets

Installing your outdoor defibrillator cabinet is quick and hassle-free:

  • Flexible Mounting: Fits on exterior walls or poles with universal brackets.
  • No Wiring Needed: Models like the Rotaid Solid Plus operate without mains power.
  • Modular Upgrades: Add heating, lighting, or locks later if needed.
  • Low Maintenance: Weatherproof seals and durable materials require minimal upkeep.

Secure access & alarm systems for outdoor defibrillator cabinets

Our outdoor AED cabinet models are designed to offer rapid, intuitive access in an emergency while deterring tampering or misuse. Each unit features a quick-access twist-to-open mechanism that allows bystanders to retrieve the AED within seconds. When the cabinet is opened, a built-in 90 dB alarm and bright LED alerts are automatically activated, drawing attention from nearby people and signaling that the device is in use. 

For added security, optional deterrents such as locks, break-glass panels, or coded access systems can be integrated without slowing down legitimate access. Even during a power outage, the cabinet’s battery backup ensures that both the alarm and lighting systems continue to function, maintaining safety and visibility at all times.

Remote monitoring for outdoor AED

With our Smart Services, your outdoor AED cabinet can be monitored remotely at all times, providing real-time updates on battery levels, pad expiry dates, and cabinet status. You’ll receive instant alerts via SMS or email if the AED is removed or requires maintenance, and multiple users, such as facility managers, safety officers, and emergency teams, can securely access the same monitoring platform for streamlined oversight.

Outdoor AED Cabinet vs Indoor AED Cabinet

While indoor AED cabinets protect against dust and light moisture, defibrillator cabinet outdoor models are built for extreme environments.

  • Outdoor cabinets withstand rain, snow, UV light, and freezing temperatures.
  • They often include heaters, LED lighting, and high-security alarms.
  • Choose outdoor cabinets for AEDs in unheated or exposed areas; choose indoor models for climate-controlled spaces.
