How LPS 1175 high-security shutters work, and what to ask for

Older Issue 7 ratings ran from SR1 to SR8; roughly, SR1 corresponds to A1, SR2 to B3 and SR3 to C5. 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. LPS 1175 is a security standard from the Loss Prevention Certification Board, part of BRE.

Options we can specify

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

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.

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 Harwich

Do you cover Harwich?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Harwich. We also cover nearby Felixstowe, Ipswich and Clacton-on-Sea.

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 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 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.

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.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
