Insurance Approved Security Shutters: Protect Your Property and Meet Insurer Requirements
When it comes to safeguarding your commercial or retail premises, investing in insurance approved security shutters is a proactive step that delivers both peace of mind and practical benefits. At HVP Security Shutters, we specialise in supplying and installing security-rated roller shutters that meet the rigorous standards demanded by leading UK insurers, providing certified protection for your business.
Why Choose Insurance Approved Security Shutters?
Insurance approved security shutters are specifically designed and independently tested to provide a robust barrier against burglary, vandalism, and forced entry. Many insurers require the installation of security-rated roller shutters—such as those certified to LPS 1175 or Secured by Design standards—as a condition of coverage, particularly for high-risk or high-value properties.
Key Benefits of Insurance Approved Shutters
Meets Insurer Criteria: Our security shutters are tested and certified to leading industry standards, including LPS 1175 and Secured by Design, ensuring compliance with most UK insurance policies.
Reduces Insurance Premiums: Installing insurance approved shutters can lead to lower premiums and excesses by minimising the risk of loss or damage.
Certified Burglary Resistance: Products are subjected to rigorous attack testing, providing proven resistance to break-ins and forced entry.
Peace of Mind: Knowing your premises are protected by shutters recognised and approved by insurers allows you to focus on your business.
What Makes a Security Shutter “Insurance Approved”?
Insurance approved security shutters are typically those that have achieved certification by independent bodies such as the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) to standards like LPS 1175. These shutters are tested for their ability to withstand sustained attacks using a variety of tools and techniques. Many insurers will specifically ask for LPS 1175 rated shutters, with Security Ratings (SR1, SR2, SR3, etc.) matched to the risk profile of your property.
