LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Macclesfield: the essentials

Older Issue 7 ratings ran from SR1 to SR8; roughly, SR1 corresponds to A1, SR2 to B3 and SR3 to C5. Rated shutters are used on pharmacies, jewellers, phone shops, plant rooms and critical infrastructure.

The certification belongs to the manufacturer's tested product, so it must be installed exactly as tested to keep its rating. The LPCB publishes a list of certified products, called the Red Book, so a rating can be checked independently.

Specification options

  • Ratings from A1 upwards to suit the risk
  • STS 202 and BS EN 1627 products on request
  • Electric operation with override
  • Installed as tested to keep the rating valid
  • Products certified to LPS 1175 Issue 8
  • Reinforced guides, curtain and locking

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Before you book in Macclesfield

Do you cover Macclesfield?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Macclesfield and the SK11 district, as part of our coverage across Cheshire.

What does an LPS 1175 rating like B3 mean?

In Issue 8, the letter is the threat level, meaning the tools and number of attackers the product was tested against, and the number is the minimum delay in minutes. B3 means threat level B with at least three minutes' delay.

Is SR2 the same as B3?

The two systems are different, but as a rough guide SR1 corresponds to A1, SR2 to B3 and SR3 to C5. Your insurer's wording tells you which version they require.

Does my insurer need a rated shutter?

Some policies specify a minimum rating for certain trades or stock values. Check your policy schedule, or send it to us and we will match the product to it.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
