With the gentrification of Thornbury and the desire for professional people and families to live closer to the city and reduce their commuting time, Thornbury has become a relatively safe area to live. Like most densely populated inner-city areas, there will always be some crime. Petty criminals and opportunistic thieves are always on the look-out for an easy target – our locksmiths recommend taking certain, budget-friendly measures to ensure your home or business is secure. Always ensure your permitter fence and any street-facing doors and windows are latched and locked. Extra precautions, like deadbolts and window closers, are easy to instal and maintain.
