A new update is available for Valheim! See the patch notes below.
This guide will show you how you can make your own personal chest in Valheim. If you want to learn how to make chests and doors only you can access, read our guide on using wards!
List of Contents
Wards allow you to lock chests and doors around a certain radius so only the person who created the ward can access them, allowing you to effectively make a personal chest or building.
This allows you to have personal belongings that only you can access, so you won't need to worry about other players stealing your belongings.

Chop Birch trees. | FineWood | |
Enemy Drop from Greydwarves. | GreydwarfEye | |
Obtained from Burial Chambers and Surtlings. | SurtlingCore |
Build a Ward with the Hammer using 5 Fine Wood, 5 Greydwarf Eyes, and 1 Surtling Core.
Once it's built, interact with it using E. It will then let out a pulse indicating that it is active.
If you want other people to be able to access the things locked behind wards, such as items in your personal chest, you deactivate your ward and ask them to interact with it. If they interact with it, the ward will release a green pulse, and when you reactivate the ward they then now have access.
They will not be able to turn the ward on and off, but they can access the locked doors and chests, so you can choose to share only with them.
