ingress
Right of entry
Ingress is the act of entering or the right to enter a place.
It pairs with egress (exit) in legal and technical contexts: The lease guarantees ingress and egress to the property.
Fire codes require adequate ingress for emergency responders.
The word appears in astronomy for a celestial body entering another's shadow or crossing its face.
