Gate

A gate or gateway is a point of entry to or from a space enclosed by walls or other barriers. The word is derived from Proto-Germanic *gatan, meaning an opening or passageway. Synonyms include portal. The concept originally referred to the gap or hole in the wall or fence, rather than a barrier which closed it. Gates may prevent or control the entry or exit of individuals, or they may be merely decorative. The moving part or parts of a gateway may be considered "doors", as they are fixed at one side whilst opening and closing like one.
