grille
If you're talking just about the bit that opens to let you out, then gate might be used. Grille is better if you're talking about any and all sides of what's sometimes called the "cage".

: Yes, gate. Elevator if you want American. In English it is, of course, a lift. But there you are.

The last part is translated so as to avoid flowers with golden calyxes/calyces.
