Tennessee Key is owned and managed by :

Roy E. Allen III of Springfield Tennessee. An avid golfer who spends his free time at The Legacy of Springfield Golf Course. He competes in numerous State and Local Golf tournaments in Tennessee. Playing to a + 1 handicap he is often asked to play in charitable scrambles with local community organizations such as the Kiwanas Club, Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club, Shriners and many others.

Roy has worked around the country for many locksmiths in his almost 40 years in the trade. He is experienced to extremes and in this trade that is important. You are hiring a competent and honest locksmith with a million references.

Born and raised in Richmond Virginia he made his way to Tennessee in 1997. He founded The Lockyard in Nashville and sold it around 2002. Moving West he continued working and learning new skills across Arizona and Texas before a family emergency forced him home to Virgina to care for his ailing mother. Upon Returning to the Nashville area he has been employed with Glovers Locksmith Service in Clarksville and subbing occasionally for Harrisons Locksmith in Lebanon and Dickson.

Roy played music professionally for many years up and down the east coast and on the road across the wild west. He attended Virginia Commonwealth University ( VCU ) studying music and attending VCU Basketball games often at the Richmond Coliseum. But Music and Golf are hobbies so he still maintained a job in the Locksmith trade.
