Extended Drawers Mod (1.21.11, 1.20.1) – Store A Lot Of Items

Managing chest clutter is one of Minecraft's oldest frustrations, and Extended Drawers Mod offers an elegant solution by introducing dedicated storage drawer blocks that hold massive quantities of a single item type. Created by MattiDragon_, this Fabric-based mod has been downloaded over 2.3 million times — a clear sign that players are hungry for smarter storage. Whether you're stockpiling cobblestone or organizing a redstone workshop, Extended Drawers keeps everything visible and accessible without endless rows of chests.

Key Features

• High-capacity storage drawers — Each drawer block stores a large quantity of one item type. You can upgrade a single-slot drawer into a two-slot or four-slot variant, letting you consolidate storage into fewer blocks.
• Access points for networked storage — Place an access point block to interact with multiple connected drawers at once, making bulk item insertion and retrieval much faster.
• Hopper and mod compatibility — Drawers work with vanilla Hoppers and transport blocks from other mods, so they fit naturally into existing automation setups.
• Drawer locking — Apply a lock to any drawer to keep its assigned item type even when the drawer is emptied. No more accidentally losing your sorting layout.

FAQ

Can Extended Drawers work with Hoppers and other automation mods?

Yes. Drawers interact with vanilla Hoppers as well as transport blocks from other mods, so you can integrate them into automated sorting and item-transport systems.

How do I store more than one item type in a single drawer?

You can upgrade a drawer block from one slot to two or four slots. Each slot still holds one item type, but upgrading lets a single block handle multiple different items.

What does locking a drawer do?

Locking a drawer preserves its assigned item type even after all items are removed. This prevents the drawer from accepting a different item and keeps your storage organization intact.
