Agrippa Vibrating Pillow Alarm: A simple way to make fire safety inclusive for every guest.

For guests who are deaf or hard of hearing, traditional sirens and bells aren’t enough—especially overnight. The Agrippa Vibrating Pillow Alarm manufactured by Geofire adds a tactile and visual alert, helping hotels, B&Bs and other accommodation providers offer safer, more inclusive stays.

How it works

• The bedside unit is battery powered and wire‑free, with a slim pad that slips under the pillow—no installation needed.
• When the building’s fire alarm sounds, Agrippa’s “listen‑and‑learn” technology recognises the unique tone and triggers three clear alerts: the pillow pad vibrates, high‑intensity LEDs flash, and the LCD screen displays “FIRE.”
• The unit is compact and portable, so staff can move it between rooms to meet guest requirements.

Why it’s ideal for hotels and B&Bs

• Fast setup: No wiring, no disruption—perfect for busy changeovers.
• Flexible: Keep a small pool of devices and allocate on request.
• Reassuring: Adds a clear, multi‑sensory alert for guests who can’t rely on sound alone.
• Practical features: Uses standard AA batteries and includes a clock display, with a visual low‑battery warning.

The Agrippa pillow alarm is a simple, cost‑effective step that can significantly improve your property’s fire safety for deaf and hard‑of‑hearing guests. It’s the kind of upgrade that helps you sleep better too—just maybe not through the vibration test.
