Mysterious breakage, fulyy tempered glass doors

My client has a number of fully tempered glass doors mysteriously shattered in the middle of nights. A total of 6 doors out of about 200 doors shattered in about 21/2 years. All but one shattered at night when there was no one around. However, the latest one happened in the middle of a day when the occupant was still in the office. Apparently when the glass popped, it stayed in place and the occupant needed assistance to break it open before getting out of the office. We were advised that the door just popped without being touched in anyway.
