What to think about first

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.

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.
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.

LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Eastleigh: questions
Do you cover Southampton as well as Eastleigh?
Yes. As well as Eastleigh, we can arrange surveys in nearby Southampton, Winchester and Totton, and elsewhere in Hampshire.
Does my insurer need LPS 1175?

What does LPS 1175 mean?
It is a security standard published by the Loss Prevention Certification Board. Products are attack-tested and certified to a rating showing the toolkit they resisted and for how long.
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.
