What to think about first
Installation
A certified grille only performs as tested if it is fixed into a suitable structure as the manufacturer specifies.
Cost and weight
Higher ratings mean heavier, more expensive grilles that need stronger fixing points.
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 Rawtenstall: questions
Do you cover Accrington as well as Rawtenstall?
Yes. As well as Rawtenstall, we can arrange surveys in nearby Accrington, Bury and Burnley, and elsewhere in Lancashire.
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.
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.
