💎 Storage Tiers

Each material tier provides additional inventory space.

Material	Chest	Barrel	Shulker Box	Double Chest
Iron	63	63	63	126
Gold	81	81	81	162
Diamond	99	99	99	198

Double Chests

Place two matching chests next to each other to create a double chest.

Both chests must have the same material tier, color, and orientation.

Double chests provide twice the storage capacity while maintaining vanilla-style opening animations.

Recoloring one half automatically recolors the entire double chest using only one dye!

Ascended Storage features a simple and intuitive upgrade system.

Start with a regular Minecraft Chest, Barrel, or Shulker Box and upgrade it using increasingly valuable materials.
