LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Richmond: what will it cost?
As a guide, LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Richmond cost £1,495 to £5,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £7,194 inc VAT) per opening, supplied and fitted. The exact figure depends on size, type, finish and locking, and is confirmed in writing after the free survey.
LPS 1175 certified security grilles are products that a manufacturer has had independently tested and certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board against the LPS 1175 standard. The rating tells you which tools the grille resisted and for how long, which is what many insurers and specifiers ask for.

Getting the right certified grille for your building
Which rating you need
Start from your insurer's or specifier's requirement rather than choosing the highest number.
Installation
A certified grille only performs as tested if it is fixed into a suitable structure as the manufacturer specifies.
What the rules say 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.
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 Richmond: questions
Do you cover Isleworth as well as Richmond?
Yes. As well as Richmond, we can arrange surveys in nearby Isleworth, Hounslow and Barnes, and elsewhere in Greater London.
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.
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.
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.
