noun
wicket gate made of branches; rustic garden gate
A traditional Japanese garden gate constructed from bundled twigs or branches, often found in tea gardens or rustic settings.
茶室の庭には枝折戸が設けられていた。
A wicket gate made of branches was installed in the tea house garden.
枝折戸をくぐると、そこは静かな別世界だった。

The reading しおりど likely derives from 枝折る (to break a branch) + 戸 (door/gate), referring to a gate made of bent or broken branches. The kanji 柴折戸 uses 柴 (brushwood) for the material.
