Situated right on the Yarra in the heart of Melbourne, Southbank is perfect for young professionals, couples without kids and retirees. Full of high-rise apartment buildings and packed with cafes and restaurants along the river, this suburb has come a long way from its humble beginnings 20 years ago.

Southbank is home to the Arts Centre Melbourne and the National Gallery of Victoria, not to mention the world of entertainment that is Crown Casino. The Royal Botanic Gardens are across Southbank Road, enabling residents to easily cross over to do a lap of the gardens. The life and soul of Southbank is the affluent, buzzing Southbank Promenade. This path stretches along side of the Yarra River from the popular Southgate shopping and dining complex to the glittering Crown Casino. The promenade is packed with cafes, shops and restaurants, with a sprinkling of upmarket hotels, major offices, public art and swish new apartments. The variety, and splendid city views make it the perfect place for locals and visitors to drink, dine, stroll and watch the occasional street performer. Southbank is an important cultural hub that includes the Melbourne Arts Centre, Concert Hall, Melbourne Recital Centre, National Gallery of Victoria, the Malthouse Theatre, the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art and Victorian College of the Arts. It also includes the Melbourne Exhibition Centre (informally known as Jeff’s Shed after a former premier) and the Polly Woodside Maritime Museum. Significant and rapid residential development has occurred in Southbank in recent years, with the population skyrocketing. The vast majority of residents live in high rise apartments, the tallest of which is the 300m tall Eureka Tower. The 92 level tower is one of the world’s tallest residential buildings.

Living in such a convenient area brings with it the same risks as home or business owners face. Statistics have shown a noticeable increase in the number of apartment burglaries that take place on a yearly basis. By rough estimation, every apartment resident has 1 in 30 chance they will be a victim of a apartment related crime over a several year period. These statistics should not be ignored. When living in a high rise, many people don’t think about protecting their apartment, they just don’t have that protective instinct that is present in many home owners. However, a criminal doesn’t care if your property is old or new, owned or rented, house or high rise, there is no discrimination. When it comes to burglar security an apartment is significantly more affordable than securing a home, this is because most apartments have less entry points. There are many simple precautions you can take to keep safe and protect yourself, you belongings and building. We being Southbank’s local professional locksmith providers for many years can assist you and provide expert advise on ways to improve your current security in order to most efficiently protect your apartment. As essential that you recognise the common risk factors, for example, most vulnerable areas will be sliding glass doors. Many apartments are fitted with sliding glass doors, which make ground level apartments especially vulnerable to burglaries. These should be secured with key lockable patio style bolts, they are designed to secure aluminium and wood sliding doors as well as French and timber hinged doors. The lock also allows doors to be locked in a partly open ventilating position.
