LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Felixstowe: the essentials

LPS 1175 is a security standard from the Loss Prevention Certification Board, part of BRE. Other test standards such as STS 202 and BS EN 1627 are also used, and we can source products to the one you need.

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.

  • Electric operation with override
  • Reinforced guides, curtain and locking
  • STS 202 and BS EN 1627 products on request
  • 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.

Questions about LPS 1175 high-security shutters in Felixstowe

Do you cover Felixstowe?

Yes. Felixstowe (IP11) is within our Suffolk coverage, along with nearby Harwich, Clacton-on-Sea and Colchester.

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.

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.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
