Tecklenborg was born under the name Friedrich. He was the younger son of the shipyard owner Eduard Tecklenborg and his Norwegian wife Anna Katharina Fleischer (1850-1892).

In 1917 he married Elisabeth Tecklenborg, nee Freiin von Hodenberg (1890–1940), and had four children. After a commercial apprenticeship at an import company, he worked for a long time in England and Valparaíso . During the First World War he returned to Bremen. From 1916 to 1926 he was next to Georg Wilhelm Claussen board member of the Johann C. Tecklenborg shipyard . The shipyard had about 3,500 employees around the 1914th After the end of the war, locomotives and wagons were also repaired at the shipyard. On December 28, 1926, the shipyard was merged with Actien-Gesellschaft "Weser" in Bremen and thus part of the shipyard group Deutsche Schiff- und Maschinenbau Aktiengesellschaft (Deschimag). In 1928 the Tecklenborg shipyard in Bremerhaven was shut down.

He expanded his company's production range to include sisal carpets and synthetic fibers. In addition, he took a stake in the company Tecklenborg, Kegel GmbH in Bremerhaven, which is now based in the fishing port of Bremerhaven, which sells ropes, wire ropes and ship accessories and manufactures rigging .

In 1927 he was accepted as a member of the Bremen House Seafaring institution and in 1929 appointed as a worker . From 1948 to 1958 Tecklenborg was head of the Seafaring House. His personal preference was music. He was a concert musician himself. Through his active work on the board of the Philharmonic Society since 1930 and his later position as chairman (1952–1958) he strengthened the musical life in Bremen.

For many years he was a member of the regional advisory board and supervisory board of Norddeutsche Kreditbank AG .
