Where a project specification calls for an LPS 1175 SR3 or C5 classification, the selected product must have the correct certification and configuration. SR3 and C5 terminology relate to different editions or classification systems and should not be treated as automatically interchangeable. Confirm the required standard edition against the site assessment and project specification.

Whether you are planning a new industrial development, protecting a commercial facility or upgrading an existing perimeter, contact us to discuss your requirements and the next steps for your fencing project.

What Is LPS 1175 SR3 / C5 Security Fencing?

LPS 1175 is a security standard used to assess the resistance of products to defined attempts at forced entry. SR3 is a designation used in earlier editions, while C5 is a classification used in the Issue 8 system. The precise classification relates to the tested performance of a particular product and must be checked against its certificate and the applicable edition.

SR3 is a different classification from SR1 and SR2. The appropriate rating for a site depends on its security requirements, the assets being protected and the specification supplied by the client, architect or security consultant.

LPS 1175 classifications and terminology can vary between editions of the standard. C5 is commonly associated with the newer classification system alongside the earlier SR3 designation, but this does not mean every SR3 product is automatically C5 certified or vice versa. For any project, check the applicable standard edition, exact product certificate and specification. A description such as high-security mesh fencing or palisade fencing does not, by itself, prove LPS 1175 certification.

SR3 / C5 Mesh Security Fencing and Palisade Fencing

Mesh security fencing and steel palisade fencing are different types of perimeter fencing. The most suitable option depends on the site's layout, visibility requirements, access arrangements and security specification.

If you are searching for SR3 or C5 mesh security fencing or SR3 palisade fencing, the key consideration is whether the particular product and its complete configuration meet the required LPS 1175 classification. Not every mesh or palisade fence is SR3-rated, so certification should be confirmed before specifying or ordering a system.

Collinson Fencing can discuss your perimeter fencing requirements and the details of your project. If SR3 certification is mandatory, please provide the relevant specification or product reference so the requirement can be clarified before work proceeds.

Where Can SR3 / C5 Security Fencing Be Used?

Depending on the certified product and the site's requirements, an appropriate SR3-rated fencing system may be considered for security-sensitive commercial and industrial applications where a defined level of resistance to attempted intrusion is required.

Potential applications may include:

• Industrial sites and warehouse facilities
• Distribution centres and logistics premises
• Commercial sites with specified perimeter security requirements
• Operational facilities containing valuable equipment or assets
• Infrastructure and utility projects, where specified
• Developments where an architect, client or security consultant requires an LPS 1175-rated system

These are examples rather than a guarantee that every SR3 product is suitable for every application. The project specification and product certification should guide the final selection.

Choosing the Right SR3 / C5 Security Fence

Specifying security fencing involves considering the complete perimeter, including fence panels, supporting posts, foundations, gates and access arrangements. The proposed installation should follow the requirements of the selected product and the project's specification.

Important considerations include:

• Product certification: Confirm the exact LPS 1175 classification and approved configuration.
• Fence height and layout: Establish the dimensions and arrangement required for the site.
• Gates and entrances: Consider how access points integrate with the security perimeter.
• Ground conditions: Account for foundations, changes in level and installation constraints.
• Whole-site security: Consider the fencing alongside other measures identified in the security design.

Where SR3 certification is a requirement, the proposed product and installation configuration should be checked against the applicable certification and project specification before installation.

SR1, SR2, SR3 and C5 Security Fencing

Different LPS 1175 classifications help specifiers identify products that meet a project's security requirements. SR1, SR2 and SR3 are established designations associated with earlier editions, while C5 is used in the Issue 8 classification system. Always verify the exact rating required by the project.

The appropriate option depends on the project's specification and risk assessment. Confirm the required classification and the certification of the proposed system rather than selecting a rating by name alone.
