Doors and Security - Insurance Approved
How
can you know which products are truly resistant to physical
attack? Appearance may suggest security, but can you be
sure that a device does not contain a design flaw that will
allow rapid access to the ingenious burglar? Specifiers,
end-users, the police and insurers are increasingly demanding
physical security that carries an independent stamp of compliance
and quality assurance. The Loss Prevention Certification
Board (LPCB), the UK’s leading independent certification
body, operates a product approval scheme to Loss Prevention
Standard 1175 (LPS 1175)
What
“tested and approved to LPS 1175” means
Approval
& certification is based on the testing of the products
performance, and the manufacturer’s quality management systems
being in accordance with ISO 9000. Installation procedures
are also defined to a high standard, ensuring the product
is not weakened by poor installation. These specialist products
should only be attached to structurally sound openings such
as masonry, brick, steel or timber, moreover the type and
frequency of fixings required is very precise. LPS 1175
is the only meaningful benchmark for gauging actual resistance
in the face of determined attack.
Passing
the test regime is a tough and lengthy process -SWS’s SeceuroGuard
1001 & SeceuroShield 3801 are both approved to: LPS 1175
security rating classification 1.
