LPS 1175 is a security standard developed by the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB). It sets out performance requirements and testing procedures for physical security products, such as fencing systems, doors, barriers, and more, to resist forced entry attacks.
The goal of LPS 1175 is to provide a trusted, consistent measure of resistance against forced entry. It helps specifiers, security professionals, and property owners understand how well a product can delay or deter intruders using real-world attack tools and tactics.
Products are classified into Security Ratings (SRs) or Threat Levels based on:
Example: SR1 / A1 resists opportunistic attacks with basic tools for 1 minute; SR5 / E10 withstands more experienced attackers using heavy-duty tools for 10 minutes.
Choosing a fence with an LPS 1175 rating helps ensure compliance with security regulations, risk assessments, and insurance requirements. It also provides peace of mind that the perimeter has been tested against credible threats.
At First Fence, we have a range of LPS 1175 Rated Products that are suitable for your projects, all of which are certified to SR1 (A1) Rating.
