PROJECT BACKGROUND Fort Pulaski National Monument (FOPU) was established by Presidential Proclamation No. 1713 (43 Stat. 1968) on October 15, 1924, and was later transferred to the Department of the Interior as part of the national park system in 1933. The national monument, which sits between Savannah and Tybee Island on the Georgia coast, encompasses 5,623 acres on Cockspur and McQueens Islands. Within this setting, the monument contains a broad range of significant resources that reflect both the natural and cultural history of Georgia on the Atlantic coast. FOPU preserves and interprets the 19th century masonry fort and associated landscape that illustrate the evolution of civil engineering and military technology, a continuum of historic resources from colonial times to the present day, and approximately 5,000 acres of nearly pristine salt marsh on McQueens and Cockspur Islands in Savannah, Georgia. Both the inner and outer pairs of sally port doors are original to the construction of Fort Pulaski, completed in 1847. These doors historically provided the only ingress and egress to the fort and serve the same purpose today. Paint remnants on the doors appear to date to the period of historic usage. Outer Doors Each of the outer doors measures approximately 6 2 " wide by 1 2 0"high. They are comprised of two layers of planks each 2 " thick. The outer layer consists of 12 vertical members while the inner layer has23 horizontal members. Each plank is grooved and splined along the edges. The wood members are quarter sawn for strength and stability. Wood samples from the doors were identified by the Forest Products Lab as being southern yellow pine, (pinus). Although the particular species of pine could not be identified, visual inspection suggests it is a long leaf pine which is characterized as heavy, strong, stiff, hard and moderately high in shock resistance. The plank layers are joined together by means of ferrous rivets. The exterior rivet heads are hemispherical with the exception of those along the top row and column closest to the hinge. These heads are flattened to enable the door to close tightly against the overlapping stone jamb. Each door is hung on two large ferrous strap hinges that extend the full width. The hinges are affixed to the doors with bolts that have roundheads on the exterior and square nuts on the interior. The irregular appearance of the projecting threads suggest they were made by hand. The ferrous pintles are set into the stone jambs. The lower pintle has an integral pin while the upper pintle has a loose pin secured by means of a wedged shaped key. The lower hinge has a small oil hole above the pintle. The doors are secured by means of a pivoting ferrous bar affixed to the right hand door. In the closed position the bar rests on two ferrous U brackets riveted to the left hand door. A wicket, a small door for individual access, is cut into the left hand door. It swings on two strap hinges and is secured by a large sliding bolt. The wicket is constructed in the same manner as the larger doors and may have actually been cut out of the large door after its fabrication. Inner Doors The inner doors or gates have diagonal latticework and arched tops. The right hand door is latticed top and bottom, while the left hand door is latticed above and planked below the mid-rail. A wicket is set into the planked portion of the left hand door. The doors are approximately 4 " thick, 144" tall and 5 4 " wide. The lattice-work is comprised of four layers varying from 1-1/8" to7 / 8 " thick. The layers are affixed to one another with flush rivets, screws and cut nails and set into grooves on the inner edges of the rails and stiles. The doors are hung on hinges similar to those found on the outer doors and are affixed with round head bolts and square nuts. They are secured with a bar that pivots on the right hand door and rests in two U shaped brackets on the left hand door II.
