Door Locker
by GalSergey
Door Locker lets a player set a password on doors, trapdoors, fence gates, levers and buttons, so only people who know the code can use them.
What it does
A lock is applied to a supported block with a named anvil, and the locker owner can open the lock without entering the password. Locked doors can be turned into animated doors, and the lock can be removed completely by its owner, with any items inside the door dropped. Redstone and villagers cannot open or close a locked door once it is set.
The mod is server required and client optional, so server owners must install it while players may leave it out. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 21 release versions, 1.19 – 1.21.8, with 1.5 for 1.20.4 as the latest file. Snapshot builds are published as well. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is not open source.
