   Or does it mean I can only use it if I’m on fire? Rather limited kind of fire escape.

   You may only exit through said door if you are, in fact on fire.

   You may use this door if you are walking on hot coals at the time. However, you must spread the burning coals through the doorway in order to then be allowed to proceed through that doorway yourself. Of course.

   And since you are in the city of Phoenix, if you opt instead to practice self-immolation in order to use the exit, it is to be hoped that you will be reborn from the ashes.
