January 12th and I'm now at this impasse

Serana flat out refuses to pen the gate. Put Serana into taking orders mode and then by aiming your x-space into the gate the option for her to open the gate is listed.

Only Serana, answers "I can't do everything for you".

I've tried glitching through on both sides of the gate.

I've used bowels, boots, gauntlets, wolf pelt, iron ingots, glass, etc.

The closest I came was with the wold pelt, on top of the rail on the left side of the gate, right where the wall begins it's angle I can catch glimpses of the manservant standing in the room.

Each time, I lose whatever I am holding against the wall right at that glimpse.

When I push one object into the wall, the previous one pops out somewhere along the bottom.

The bowl is the easiest to lose in the wall.

So, Developers!? When is there going to be a real fix for this??

And yes, I came across the castle before the Dawnguard Quest, while wandering searching for ingredients, spikey grass, nordic barnacles, slaughterfish eggs and the occasional clam. (Side note, after twenty thirty clams, I've yet to find a pearl). Thoase of us who assiduously focused on building alchemy and smithing skills wander far searching for free ingredients.

So what do I have to do in the meantime? Let Serana follow me around complaining about Skyrim weather and sunlight while waiting for a fix?

I do so hate replaying major sections of a game.

Just to close on a positive note; the game has been fantastic otherwise. Yes, the conversations are still stunted and real annoying. Yes, the Forsworn keep repopulating cleared sites, (where are they breeding?). But the game is quite addictive.
