wooden gate

Hinged yard opening

A wooden gate is a hinged barrier made of wood, typically set within a fence or wall to control passage.

Wooden gates range from simple garden gates to elaborate entrances on estates.

The term evokes rustic or traditional settings: She unlatched the wooden gate and walked into the meadow.

A wooden gate may creak, sag, or weather over time, adding to its charm or signaling neglect.
