SecureLocks

by Kadddor

With SecureLocks, a player marks a storage block with a sign and only the people on its trust list can open it, on multiplayer servers running Fabric.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT License1.20.1 – 1.21.11

What it does

A player writes one first line on a sign next to a container to claim it, and the lock then blocks other players from opening, hopper-extracting or breaking that storage. Villagers can also be claimed with signs, so their trading stays with the owner and unwanted trades are prevented. Locks can be shared with a trust list of named players, who gain access while everyone else stays out. Operators have an admin bypass for moderation.

The mod is server-side only: players join without installing anything, and the server alone runs it. It runs on Fabric and is published for 1.20.1 – 1.21.11 across 18 release versions, with the latest file 1.0.3 for 1.21.11, released under the MIT License. Arabic trigger words are supported while the interface stays in English. TNT remains able to break protected locks, which keeps raiding possible and survival balanced.

Key features

  1. Sign-based container locks

    A sign placed next to chests, barrels, trapped chests, double chests or shulker boxes sets the owner and locks the storage.

  2. Trust lists

    Owners can add named players to a trust list so they can use a locked container while others stay out.

  3. Hopper and minecart protection

    Locked containers resist extraction by hoppers and hopper minecarts, which keeps stored items safe from automated theft.

  4. Explosion protection

    Creeper, fireball and wither skull explosions leave protected locks alone, while intentional TNT can still break them.

  5. Villager ownership

    A sign claims a villager, which protects its trades from other players.
