Questions from pharmacies
Do pharmacies need LPS 1175 grilles?
Not automatically. Some insurers or head offices specify a rating; send us their requirement and we will quote to it.
Can a grille close off the dispensary during the day?
Yes. A retractable or hinged grille door can lock off the dispensary while leaving it visible.
Can you work outside opening hours?
Out-of-hours fitting can usually be arranged when you book.
