The company’s Rolegard-High Security SR4-DSHD range of shutters have been approved to LPS 1175: Issue 7 (Requirements and testing procedures for the LPCB approval and listing of intruder resistant building components, strongpoints, security enclosures and free-standing barriers).
Paul Barson, general manager of the industrial door division of Gilgen Door Systems UK, said:
“The safety and security of our customers’ employees and property has always been paramount. Achieving certification to the latest LPS 1175 (Issue 7) firmly demonstrates our commitment to providing innovative security solutions that meet their needs.
“We are extremely proud to now offer a choice of certificated products that can meet medium, high and very high attack risks which can be used as a standalone system or as part of more advanced layered security solutions.”
Physical security products and systems are rated to LPS 1175 in terms of the resistance to forced entry they provide against different levels of attack. The Security Rating (SR) system ranges from SR1 to SR8 and is based upon domestic risks (1 and 2), commercial risks (2, 3 and 4), high security risks (5 and 6) and extremely high security risks (7 and 8). These ratings are based on the tools and time available to the attacker. The tools range from those that can easily be concealed about a person and used by an opportunist burglar, to larger tools used during a planned attack.
