LPS 2081 and types of security ratings

LPS 2081 Issue 1:2015 is one of the standards to which windows and other building components must be designed and tested, in order to satisfy the requirements of Building Regulations Part Q. LPS 2081 specifically addresses the ability of building products to resist casual intruders who attempt ‘stealth’ attacks to gain entry. These types of opportunist attacks are often carried out in residential areas. Stealth attacks are used in situations where the burglar wants to avoid making significant noise, as well as keep from being seen. With this in mind, the test protocols in LPS 2081 will subject building products to attack with bodily force and with tools that can be easily hidden on the body.
