HistoryEdit

Jabba Desilijic Tiure used a sadistic TT-8L/Y7 to guard the gate to his palace on Tatooine. It would let R2-D2 and C-3PO into the palace in 4 ABY, who were delivering a message from Luke Skywalker.

A similar one guarded Ka'Pa's palace and didn't allow Mara Jade audience. Mara had to be disguised as a Tusken Raider in order to fool the droid.

One also appeared guarding Brogar's Safe House on Socorro but appeared to be controlled by a Gotal at the door.

Captain Neg also had one TT-8L/Y7 droid guarding the door of his residence in Mos Espa in 32 BBY. While he was hunting Banthas in the Dune Sea, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn tried to enter the house and rescue a local Ithorian boy named Tomo. The droid didn't let the Jedi enter the house, instead activating the security turrets near the gates, which forced Jinn to enter via a balcony.
