What to know about LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Chester-le-Street

Where the structure around the opening is weak, it may need strengthening for the rating to mean anything in practice. Higher ratings mean heavier curtains, stronger guides and locking, and fixings into suitable structure.

The LPCB publishes a list of certified products, called the Red Book, so a rating can be checked independently. Older Issue 7 ratings ran from SR1 to SR8; roughly, SR1 corresponds to A1, SR2 to B3 and SR3 to C5.

Features to choose from

  • Installed as tested to keep the rating valid
  • Structural fixing checked at survey
  • Products certified to LPS 1175 Issue 8
  • Certificate reference provided with your quote
  • STS 202 and BS EN 1627 products on request
  • Ratings from A1 upwards to suit the risk

Covering Chester-le-Street and nearby

Jobs in Chester-le-Street are planned as part of our County Durham coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Washington, Houghton-le-Spring and Stanley. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Chester-le-Street

Do you cover Chester-le-Street?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Chester-le-Street and the DH3 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

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.

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.

Do you hold LPCB certification?

The certification belongs to the manufacturer's tested shutter, not to us. We supply certified products, give you the certificate reference with the quote, and install them to the tested specification.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
