Strongdor Launches a New Attack Standard – LPS 1673, Protecting More than Assets

Introducing LPS 1673: A New Benchmark in Attack-Resistant Security Doors

Strongdor’s LPS 1673 certified steel doors are designed to offer enhanced protection in environments where targeted physical attacks are a risk. Developed by BRE in collaboration with security professionals, the LPS 1673 standard addresses the need for reliable resistance against forced entry and violent intrusion, particularly in locations where personal safety and asset protection are critical.

Unlike general security ratings, LPS 1673 specifically evaluates a product’s ability to delay aggressive, determined attacks. This delay provides critical time for individuals to seek safety and call for help.

 

What Makes LPS 1673 Different?

LPS 1673 is an attack rating standard, not a general security classification. It focuses on an offender’s ability to physically breach a product with tools and force, simulating real-world attack scenarios. The standard applies to environments where attackers are not attempting subtle entry but instead use speed, violence, and determination to gain access.

Products meeting this certification are assessed based on their ability to deter, defend, and most importantly, delay entry, a crucial factor in protecting occupants and assets.

 

Where Are LPS 1673 Doors Used?

LPS 1673 certified doors are ideal for properties that require elevated protection against direct attack.

Common applications include:

These doors provide a visible and tested deterrent, giving peace of mind where security cannot be compromised.

 

The Strongdor Attackdor – LPS 1673 Certified

Strongdor was the first manufacturer to launch a steel door set certified to the LPS 1673 standard. Known as the Attackdor, this specialist product is engineered to combine advanced performance with a clean, architectural finish.
Currently rated to AR.A300, the Attackdor range continues to evolve with more hardware options being introduced to meet diverse project requirements.
