A wicket gate is a pedestrian door or gate, particularly one built into a larger door or into a wall or fence near a larger gate. It may also be a stand-alone gate that provides convenient secondary access, for example to the rear of a walled park or garden
How to map
- Add the tag
barrier=to a node located at the center of the gate. Usually this node should be part of abarrier=wallorbarrier=fence.
- Some mappers make a short line with two nodes to show the exact width of the gate, instead.
Combine with access=* where appropriate, or opening_hours=* if the gate is open at certain hours or days. See entrance=* to specify the main entrance to a feature
Note that barrier=gate is widely used to map also wicket gates.
