GATE
Gate
A gate is a point of entry to a space enclosed by
walls, or an opening in a
fence. Gates may prevent or control entry or exit, or they may be merely decorative.Larger gates can be used for a whole building, such as a
castle or
fortified town, or the actual
doors that block entry through the gatehouse. Today many gate doors are opened by an automated
gate operator.
