The rating tells you which tools the grille resisted and for how long, which is what many insurers and specifiers ask for.

Things to decide before you order
Certified product, not certified installer
The certificate covers the manufacturer's tested product. Check the certificate reference against the LPCB's listing.
Which rating you need
Start from your insurer's or specifier's requirement rather than choosing the highest number.
Rules that apply in England
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings need listed building consent for works that affect their character, which can include internal grilles and their fixings. In conservation areas, councils look closely at anything fitted to the outside. We recommend speaking to the council's conservation officer before ordering.
Grilles across exits in business premises
In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Bedford: questions
Can you survey in Bedford and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bedford, Ampthill, St Neots and elsewhere in Bedfordshire are booked around installer availability.
Does my insurer need LPS 1175?
Only your insurer can say. Send us their wording and we will quote products that match it.
Can an existing grille be certified?
No. Certification applies to manufactured products that have been tested; an existing uncertified grille cannot be upgraded to a rating.
What do ratings like C5 or SR3 mean?
Under Issue 8 the letter is the threat level (the toolkit) and the number is the minutes of delay. SR1 to SR8 is the older scale; for example SR2 roughly corresponds to B3 and SR3 to C5.
