What Wikipedia says

An emergency exit (also known as a fire exit) is a special exit used during emergencies in a building or other structure such as fires. The combined use of regular and emergency exits allows for faster evacuation, and emergency exits provide alternative means of evacuation if regular exits are inaccessible.
