What is a "gatepost"?
A gatepost is a vertical post that supports or marks the sides of a gate, typically found at the entrance of a driveway, garden, or property. It helps hold the gate in place and may be made from various materials such as wood, metal, or stone. Gateposts are often used to provide structural stability and are sometimes decorative, adding to the aesthetic appearance of the gate or entrance.
Example
