Meeting a Boxing Legend & Serving the Scottish Borders – Hirst Locksmiths


Hirst Locksmiths owner Danny Hirst recently enjoyed a memorable Christmas experience after receiving a special gift from his wife — a meet and greet evening with his boxing hero, Carl Froch.


Despite the well-known saying “don’t meet your heroes,” the experience could not have been more positive. Carl Froch proved to be a genuinely friendly and down-to-earth individual, sharing engaging stories from his early life through to his professional boxing career, including his unforgettable final fight against George Groves. Danny also had the pleasure of meeting Carl’s brother, Lee Froch, who was equally welcoming and approachable.


With the festivities over, Hirst Locksmiths continues to provide reliable, professional locksmith services across the Scottish Borders. Danny will be working in Heriot (TD6) and Galashiels (TD1), offering trusted solutions for residential and commercial customers alike.
