Can exit doors be locked?
Most state laws make it illegal to lock exit doors if the building is occupied. The door does not have to allow people to come in through them, only to exit through through them. Even if there are "excess" doors available (e.g., 10 doors for 2,000 people and only 50 people inside, which could easily fit through one or two doors), ALL required fire doors must be properly illuminated, signed and operable regardless of how many people happen to be inside. In theory, a fire or other emergency could start in any part of the structure and every fire exit must be available for use by any untrained person inside. Trained personnel on a night shift, for instance, may allow all but two doors to be locked (or shuttered), because the training includes instructions on where the two open exits are.

What is an Emergency exit?
There are emergency exits in many types of buildings and commercial aircraft. Every building exceeding a certain size must be designed with extra doors leading to safety in case of fire. The number of doors and their placement depends upon the type of occupancy (e.g., dwelling, warehouse, factory, theater, etc). There are rules about how close together exits must be, so that people are NEVER farther than the limit (e.g., 150 feet in an un-sprinklered grocery store) These doors, kept closed under normal circumstances, can be used to evacuate the building very quickly in case of emergency (fire, gaz...). These doors are indicated with an illuminated EXIT sign (lit internally or externally). If the building is required to have emergency lighting, then the EXIT signs must also have a backup power source (e.g., batteries) or be photoluminescent and remain visible for at least 90 minutes after power is lost. Emergency exits do not always go directly outside; they may simply allow occupants to move into an area of refuge, separated by a smoke and fire barrier designed to last an hour or more. After the Station nightclub fire, NFPA standards were upgraded to require larger main exits for nightclubs, discotheques, dance halls, bars with live entertainment and any assembly occupancy with festival seating, i.e., more than 50 people. NFPA 101 (2006): 12.2.3.6.2 (capacity to handle at least 2/3 of the total allowed occupancy, versus early code requiring only 1/2).
Is it illegal to step on someones property when getting out of your parked vehicle?
My neighbors using my roof as their terrace illegally. They might think this is their terrace as their Landlord put a door (previously was a big window), saying this is only emergency exit. I am not sure if he could do it without our permission and emergency exit (stairs) he could do from the side of the house. And what about his tenants who damaging our roof (it was leaking already)?

Using an Electrical Generator ?
The fact of the matter is that electrical generators should only be used for non-emergency purposes. Obviously, a person cannot fire these machines up when there is no electricity. In reality, such generators are best used for outdoor activities on a property where other options are not as effective. A gas generator is the best option for homeowners that want to ensure they are protected during an emergency. Still, electrical generators do have their uses.
