Attack Resistant Security Doors
The Loss Prevention Certification Board developed a system of testing and classification of materials to resist forced entry which has been widely adopted by Police ,Government, Insurance and Utility Companies. The relevant standard for doorsets is LPS 1175 Issue 7 which is a specification for the testing the burglary resistance of building components, strongpoints and security enclosures. LPS 1175 Issue 7 lists eight SR levels of manual attack resistance, each defined by the length of attack test time and category of tools available.
Architectural Armour offer LPS rated doorsets from level SR1 to level SR6, dependent on test certification doorsets are available in most configurations, single, double, leaf and half, complete with a comprehensive range of certified single and multipoint locking options.
