If you have a key you can lock a door or a container.

There are a lot of mods that introduce the locking feature. But I find them a bit cheaty (since you can lock any object using a spell or even a lockpick). In contrast, in this mod you must have a key in your inventory.
How to lock a door/chest? - Unequip any weapon from your right hand - Activate the object - Select the Lock option
Tactical application: You can divide enemy forces by restricting their movement. For example, lure a person into a room and lock the door. You can even lock the enemy in a cage.
Lockable Locks is a compact gameplay mod that lets you re-lock doors and containers using a key, adding a layer of roleplay and tactical control. With 463 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads, it's a niche utility for players who want to secure areas or restrict enemy movement.
