The only reason why I already knew the name of this type of gate was because Fezzik was ordered to prevent it from closing in 'The Princess Bride'. Porte cochere are very common in my neighborhood as there's a zoning requirement for all garages to be behind the primary residence, but so far, I've yet to see anyone equip one with a portcullis.
