Chest Guard
by TrickoMods
Chest Guard lets server owners lock chests so that only their owner and the players they trust can open, move items from, or break them.
What it does
Locked chests stay shielded from other players in every game mode the server runs, including creative and survival worlds. Ownership and access permissions let a chest owner grant controlled access to protected storage without transferring ownership. The mod also tracks inventory activity on protected chests and sends real-time alerts, and TNT and Creeper explosions are handled as a protection concern.
Chest Guard is built for PaperMC multiplayer servers and is published for Fabric, Forge and Paper. Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod. Files cover 1.21 – 26.2 across 16 release versions, and the latest builds are 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 on Fabric and Forge. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, and an optional wiki documents its commands.
Key features
Chest ownership and locking
Single and double chests can be locked to an owner, with a command that lists or changes the lock state.
Controlled item transfers
Items selected in a source chest by coordinates move to a target chest and merge into existing stacks.
Chest details on sight
Looking at a chest shows its name, owner, coordinates and lock status in the action bar.
Explosion protection
Locked chests are shielded from TNT and Creeper explosions, so bombing a base does not empty storage.
