How LPS 1175 high-security shutters work, and what to ask for
Rated shutters are used on pharmacies, jewellers, phone shops, plant rooms and critical infrastructure. Where the structure around the opening is weak, it may need strengthening for the rating to mean anything in practice. LPS 1175 is a security standard from the Loss Prevention Certification Board, part of BRE.
The certification belongs to the manufacturer's tested product, so it must be installed exactly as tested to keep its rating. Other test standards such as STS 202 and BS EN 1627 are also used, and we can source products to the one you need.
Options we can specify
- Certificate reference provided with your quote
- Electric operation with override
- STS 202 and BS EN 1627 products on request
- Reinforced guides, curtain and locking
- Structural fixing checked at survey
- Installed as tested to keep the rating valid

Rules in Scotland
Rated security products
LPS 1175 certification belongs to the manufacturer's tested product. We give you the certificate reference with your quote and install the shutter to the tested specification. We do not hold or claim certification ourselves.
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Scotland fitting an external security shutter to a shopfront normally needs planning permission from the council, and listed building consent if the building is listed. Councils often ask for the box to be concealed and for open or perforated designs rather than solid shutters in conservation areas.
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In Scotland electrical work in buildings must also meet the Scottish building standards, and is carried out and certified by a qualified electrician.

LPS 1175 high-security shutters: common questions
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.
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.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
