LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Merseyside: the essentials

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. Issue 8 ratings combine a letter for the tools and attackers tested against with a number for the minimum delay in minutes, such as B3 or C5.

Higher ratings mean heavier curtains, stronger guides and locking, and fixings into suitable structure. 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

  • Products certified to LPS 1175 Issue 8
  • Installed as tested to keep the rating valid
  • Certificate reference provided with your quote
  • Electric operation with override
  • Structural fixing checked at survey
  • Ratings from A1 upwards to suit the risk

Covering Merseyside

We cover Merseyside from Liverpool to Birkenhead, St Helens and Southport, with 16 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.

Rules in England

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 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.

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 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.

  4. We fit and commission

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

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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

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.
