Thor Citation External TV lock

I have a Thor Citation 24ST. There are four keys, two black for the main side door, a Purple that opens all the external side compartments, and a grey one I'm not sure of. I'm trying to open the external TV door, but none of the keys work in that lock.

Does it take a separate unique key that I don't have?

I would like to understand what's going on before I drill the lock out.

All my motorhomes had a separate key for the external TV. See if there is a number on the lock and order a new key. Many use a CH 507.

Is the gray one all metal?
If it is: I'd try it a second time in the TV compartment.

Before you drill-- Go to any RV dealer, there are only a few keys for the RV locks. Should only take a few minutes to run thru the options..
