In summary

16th century; derived from Middle High German schrage (“grid of items arranged crosswise, e.g. of wooden pegs”), probably related with schränken (“to arrange crosswise”), from Old High German screnken (“to slant”), from Proto-Germanic *skrankaz (“barrier, grid”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ker- (“to bend, turn”). Cognate with Dutch schraag, German Schranke (“gate, barrier”). Older derivatives are Middle High German schregen (“to have crooked legs; to walk in a slanted manner”), Old High German scregihōrī (“state of being slanted”).
