a fire door is one term for an access to or from an emergency exit.
A fire door is designed to keep smoke and fire from moving from one part of a building to another, and to provide a safe way to escape from a fire.
Not all fire doors lead directly outside; some lead to stairs or horizontal passageways, which lead to an exit door, either outside or to a safe area.
Fire doors are required for protection of any large openings in a fire wall that separates one part of a building from another. Some industrial fire doors are designed to slam shut during a fire and cannot be opened or used as an exit. There must be, of course, other fire doors that serve as exits.
Fire and safety codes generally require that fire doors be of a self-closing type and prohibit propping open or obstructing a fire door for any reason.

Can you shorten internal fire rated doors?
Yes, you can shorten fire rated doors, but edges have to be re-lipped. Fire doors are tested to keep out fire for a set time (usually 30mins). A 24'' fire door will keep out the fire just as long as a 33'' door, its the construction that matters most, delaying fire going from front of door through to the otherside.
