The protective defibrillator storage device has an enclosure comprised of a plurality of wall sections, a top section, a bottom section and a door section. The wall sections, top section, bottom section, and the door section define an interior compartment. The interior compartment is of sufficient size to house a defibrillator. A defibrillator mount is connected to an interior surface of the enclosure. An alarm means is connected to the enclosure. The alarm means is used to indicate that the door of the protective defibrillator storage device has been opened, and that a cardiac arrest incident is possibly in progress. The alarm means is comprised of an alarm circuit with a visual alarm signal and an audible alarm signal. The alarm means is activated when the door section is opened and remains activated until the alarm means is deactivated and reset. An activation switch for triggering the alarm means is connected to the door section and operatively positioned to contact an enclosure wall when the door is closed.
