The usual universal extra dimensions scenario does not allow for single production of first level Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations of matter due to the KK number conservation. However, if the matter fields are localized on a fat rane embedded in a higher dimensional space, matter-gravitation interactions violate KK number, and the production of single KK excitations becomes possible. In this paper we analyze the production of a single KK matter excitation together with a graviton in the final state, and study the potential for discovery at the Tevatron and Large Hadron Collider.
