Your questions answered
Can a step-free shower be fitted without moving the door?
Usually yes in these house types, provided the floor build-up allows a small drop to the drain, this needs checking before work starts.
Are grab rails fitted into stud walls secure long-term?
Only with proper noggins or a fixing plate behind the plasterboard; a rail screwed straight into board alone won't take sustained load.
