What to think about first
Cost and weight
Higher ratings mean heavier, more expensive grilles that need stronger fixing points.
Installation
A certified grille only performs as tested if it is fixed into a suitable structure as the manufacturer specifies.
Consents and safety: England
External grilles and planning
External grilles and shutters on shops and other commercial buildings normally need planning permission from the local council because they change the building's appearance. Many councils' shopfront guides favour internal, open-lattice grilles, particularly in conservation areas.
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for business premises, stock and cash. If your policy names a type or rating of grille, get the wording in writing before ordering; the insurer decides whether a product meets it.

LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Croydon: questions
Can you survey in Croydon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Croydon, South Croydon, Wallington and elsewhere in Greater London 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.
Are you LPS 1175 certified?
No. Certification is held by the manufacturer for the tested product. We supply and install certified products and give you the manufacturer's certificate reference.
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.
