St Albans security tip
Upgrading older doors and windows
St Albans has many post-war homes with original timber doors and windows. Fitting keyed window locks, a deadlock and security screen on the back door, and replacing worn door frames are low-cost upgrades that make a real difference. Shops along Alfrieda Street should cover rear entries as well as the shopfront.
St Albans homes and what they mean for security
St Albans grew after the war with weatherboard and brick homes on generous blocks, many now subdivided for units and townhouses. Older homes often have original timber windows, low front fences and a driveway beside the house. The Alfrieda Street shops and restaurants trade into the evening.
