Can someone tell me what does doorway pages mean?

I went through a few Google articles, but they’re too complicated. Can anyone break them down for me?

Doorway pages are low-quality websites that are made only to rank for particular keywords and direct users to a single location; they frequently negatively impact user experience and go against search engine regulations.

Doorway pages are low-quality pages created just to rank for specific search queries - usually slight variations like “plumber in NYC,” “plumber Manhattan,” “24h plumber NYC” - but all leading to the same destination or offering nearly identical content. They’re not made for users; they’re built to trick search engines into showing more links to your site.
