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

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

Higher ratings mean heavier curtains, stronger guides and locking, and fixings into suitable structure. Your insurer may name a minimum rating in your policy, so check the schedule before choosing a product.

What's included

  • Structural fixing checked at survey
  • Electric operation with override
  • Reinforced guides, curtain and locking
  • STS 202 and BS EN 1627 products on request
  • Certificate reference provided with your quote
  • Ratings from A1 upwards to suit the risk

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.

LPS 1175 high-security shutters: common questions

Do you cover Birmingham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Birmingham. We also cover nearby Smethwick, West Bromwich and Shirley (Solihull).

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 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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
