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.

Cost and weight

Higher ratings mean heavier, more expensive grilles that need stronger fixing points.

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.

Grilles across exits in business premises

In workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep escape routes and emergency exits available and easy to open while people are present. A grille across an exit should be unlocked and parked open whenever the building is occupied, and covered in the fire risk assessment.

LPS 1175 certified security grilles in Tyne and Wear: questions

Which towns in Tyne and Wear do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Tyne and Wear, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, South Shields, Gateshead and Washington, and in other towns across the area.

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.

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.

Does my insurer need LPS 1175?

Only your insurer can say. Send us their wording and we will quote products that match it.
