The gates

What's the use of the gates, when they open just before a large group of enemies are passing through? I was in the gate of Mnem when it opened just a minute before a group of 20 DC rode through to go steal the elder scroll. So if the gates aren't there to block (large groups of) enemies, what are they there for?

As I burn down and murder, I know that God forgives.
'Spite all the things I've done my soul yet forever lives.
And all those caught in the shadow of my wings have cause to fear.
I swear on all I've done, no evil shall linger here.

    I think they're there to pass out free cookies to all the enemies coming to raid your lands.

    So you know that you have to loose two of your tri-keeps (the middle one and the one closest to the gate) to make the gate open, right? It's completely impassible for an enemy unless both tri-keeps are taken.

    Until now, I didn't know that, so thanks for the knowledge. But not weird that DC was marching in and out, I think I was the only AD on the server.

    Edit2: has someone told the good people of Tamriel that it is highly unusual that you open your gates when the enemy has two of your three keeps? It's not very strategical.

    I tried to get sky shards past the enemy gate and couldn't figure out how.
