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
Installation
A certified grille only performs as tested if it is fixed into a suitable structure as the manufacturer specifies.
Which rating you need
Start from your insurer's or specifier's requirement rather than choosing the highest number.
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.

Can you survey in Maidstone and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Maidstone, Chatham, Rochester and elsewhere in Kent 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.
