entrance gates

Doors to grounds

Entrance gates are the gates at an entry point to a property, venue, or enclosed area.

The phrase typically refers to larger, more formal structures—the ornamental iron gates at a mansion's driveway, the turnstiles at an amusement park, or the barriers controlling access to a gated community.

Security guards checked IDs at the entrance gates.
