side gate

Yard's secondary door

A side gate is a secondary entrance to a property, typically positioned along a fence or wall rather than at the front.

It often provides access to a backyard, garden, or service area without going through the main entrance: The delivery driver left the package by the side gate.

In manufacturing, a side gate is where molten material enters a mold from the side rather than the top or bottom.
