Around 2029 people per square kilometre in Croydon means a standard floor plan where the hallway outside the bedrooms is the critical position. At roughly 124 metres, Croydon has enough grade that many homes have a lower living area or undercroft. If anyone sleeps there it needs detection.
At about 30 kilometres from the CBD, Croydon is outer-ring, where the alarms are often all the same age and all due together. Croydon sits inside Maroondah. The obligations that matter here are the building regulations and, for landlords, the annual test and record.
Because Croydon backs onto Croydon Hills and Croydon North, a second visit is rarely a second trip for us. There were 28608 people living in Croydon at the 2021 census, spread over around 14.1 square kilometres in Maroondah, postcode 3136.
A note on how Croydon developed: The Post Office opened on 1 December 1883 after the railway line was established. Homes from before the mid-nineties usually have no hardwired alarm unless someone added one. We are in and out of Croydon and its neighbours constantly. That run includes Croydon Hills, Croydon North, Croydon South and Kilsyth.
We work out of Boronia, about 7.9 kilometres north from Croydon. No travel charge, no minimum call-out to justify the drive. Croydon railway station is the historic centre of Croydon, and the housing around it reflects that.
One more piece of local background: On 1 August 1884 it was renamed Croydon railway station. It is also worth knowing that == History == Dating back to 1840 the land was first utilised by settlers for grazing and the first road cut through the area now known as Croydon, was initially known as Sawmill Road, as a sawmill was nearby.

Absolutely fantastic service and work done! The boys were super accommodating, answered any questions I had without a problem, left everything neat and tidy and overall did an amazing job installing our battery and inverter. Cannot recommend enough.
