# Chest SignLock<\/p>\n
Chest SignLock is a server-side Fabric mod that lets players protect containers and doors using signs.<\/p>\n
It is designed to be simple, lightweight, and easy to understand for players: place a sign, write who is allowed, and the block becomes private.<\/p>\n
Chest SignLock is heavily inspired by the classic Spigot plugin BlockLocker, adapted for modern Fabric servers.<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
– Protect containers and doors with `[Private]` signs
\n– Add extra allowed players with `[More Users]` signs
\n– Supports chests, trapped chests, barrels, shulker boxes, dispensers, droppers, furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, lecterns, and all doors
\n– Handles double chests and doors as one protected object
\n– Prevents unauthorized players from opening protected blocks
\n– Prevents unauthorized players from editing protected signs
\n– Prevents protected blocks and signs from being broken by unauthorized players
\n– Protects locked blocks from explosions
\n– Blocks hoppers, hopper minecarts, and copper golems by default
\n– Supports `[Redstone]` on signs to allow automation\/redstone access
\n– Includes English and French messages
\n– Server-side only<\/p>\n
## How It Works<\/p>\n
Place a sign on a supported block to lock it.<\/p>\n
A private sign uses:<\/p>\n
“`text
\n[Private]
\nPlayerName
\n“`<\/p>\n
To add more players, use:<\/p>\n
“`text
\n[More Users]
\nPlayerOne
\nPlayerTwo
\nPlayerThree
\n“`<\/p>\n
If a block has a valid `[Private]` sign, only listed players and server operators can interact with it.<\/p>\n
## Commands<\/p>\n
“`text
\n\/chestlocklang en
\n\/chestlocklang fr
\n\/debuglockedchest
\n“`<\/p>\n
The language commands require operator permission.<\/p>\n
