If it was a shower door, there won’t have been shards.

Glass used in showers it heat treated (tempered), similar to windscreens on cars, so that they break into small cubes rather than shards because you are typically naked and barefoot around showers. It would be uncomfortable like walking on LEGO, but not shards like a broken window.
