If you're reading this, chances are you're struggling with the same problem we had. A door that swings open and hits the toilet, the washing machine, or your knee.
We've been there.
After months of putting up with it, we finally decided to do something about our tiny, cramped HDB toilet. Best decision we made for our 2026 renovation.
Let me share our journey – from frustrated homeowners to happy customers.

## The Search for a Solution
My journey began with late-night Googling. I typed in things like "space saving toilet door Singapore" and "HDB bathroom door replacement".
That's how I stumbled upon Renovaid Team.
I'll be honest – I wasn't sure at first. There are so many door suppliers in Singapore. But the more I read, the more I liked what I saw.
They had:
- BCA registration (not every door company has this)
- Direct factory manufacturing in Singapore
- Been around since 2014 – that's a good sign
- Clear pricing with no hidden costs
After reading reviews and comparing options, we decided to take the plunge.
If you are also searching for quality doors, Renovaid Team has an impressive range of **[bedroom doors](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** too. We ended up getting our bedroom doors from them as well – more on that later.

## The Slide and Swing Door – What Even Is That?
When I first heard the name, I was confused. How can it be both?
The friendly team at Renovaid explained it simply:
It slides first to get out of the way, then swings open. The sliding motion means it doesn't need that big clearance arc.
Here is what I love about it:
- **No bottom track** – This was HUGE for us. Mould city. Never again.
- **Space-saving magic** – Our bathroom feels twice as big now.
- **White or grey powder-coated finish** – We went with grey and it looks so sleek.
- **Water resistant** – No more worrying about swelling slide and swing vs bifold door or rotting.
If you want to see pictures and design options, **[check out Renovaid Team's slide and swing door page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . Way nicer in real life than on screen.

## The Ordering Process – Step by Step
Here is a play-by-play of our experience, so you know what to expect.
### First Contact – WhatsApp 9898 9268
I sent a WhatsApp message to 9898 9268. I'm not a fan of phone calls anyway, so this worked perfectly for me.
Response time was surprisingly quick – a few hours. Asked me for my door size, location, and what I needed.
Quick tip: Measure your doorway first before reaching out. Saves a lot of back-and-forth.
### Step 2: Booking the Measurement
We scheduled a free on-site measurement. The appointment was easy to book – just a few messages back and forth.
The day of the visit:
- They actually showed up when they said they would – refreshing, I know
- Came with actual colour samples and a catalogue
- We picked a grey frame with a clean, simple panel design
- Double-checked all measurements like a true pro
One thing to know: You need to put down a deposit (50% or $100 minimum) during the visit. We used PayNow – super easy. Also, if you cancel the visit without confirming an order, there is a $40 fee to cover their transport.
Oh, and make sure the person who makes decisions is home – don't send your helper or a family member who can't approve things. Ask me how I know.
### Step 3: Waiting for Installation
Once we paid and signed off, we were told installation would take 14 to 21 working days. Ours took 18 working days – right in the middle of the estimate.
Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth it.
### Step 4: Installation Day
The night before, their office sent a WhatsApp message between 5 PM and 8 PM with a 1 to 2-hour arrival window. Our slot was 10 AM to 12 PM.
The guy showed up at 10:30am – right on time. Professional, polite, and clearly knew what he was doing.
The whole installation took about 1.5 hours. He hauled away our old rotting wooden door (it was disgusting at the bottom), installed the new slide and swing door, and cleaned up after himself.
Before he left, he asked us to try opening and closing the door to make sure we were happy. He showed us how the mechanism works and how to clean it.
Final payment was made on the spot – again via PayNow. Exactly what they quoted.

## Would We Recommend It?
Now that we've had the door for over a month, **We are genuinely thrilled with it.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Aspect | Our Experience |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space efficiency** | I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine. Game changer for small HDB bathrooms. |
| **Trackless floor** | Cleaning is SO easy now. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. My back thanks me. |
| **Smooth operation** | The mechanism is so smooth. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water resistance** | We've had zero issues with swelling. The old wooden door was swollen at the bottom – this one looks brand new. |
| **Aesthetics** | The grey powder-coated finish is gorgeous. Looks way more expensive than $399. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
I'm struggling to find negatives, but if I had to nitpick:
- **The wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they did warn us. Plan ahead if you're in a rush.
- **The $40 fee if you cancel** – Fair, but good to know.
- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp first!
That's all I've got. I'm reaching for complaints here.

## The Price – Let's Talk Money
The promotion we got was:
**1 Set Slide & Swing Toilet Door – $399 Nett**
And here is exactly what that $399 included:
- ✅ Free measurement (they came to us)
- ✅ Free delivery

No hidden GST. No extra fees. No surprises.
What they quoted is what we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.

Just a heads up – this offer ends 31 May 2026, so don't wait too long if you're interested.

## How We Ended Up Getting Bedroom and Main Doors Too
This is the part that surprised even me: We were so impressed with the slide and swing door, we ended up getting Renovaid to replace every door in our house.
### Bedroom Doors – Solid Core Laminate
The old bedroom doors were hollow and flimsy. You could hear everything through them.
We upgraded to solid core laminate doors – and wow, what a difference.
The difference is night and day. The laminate finish is scratch-resistant (important with our crazy cat) and water-resistant.
If you're in the market, I highly recommend checking out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . They have hollow core, solid core, nyatoh plywood, veneer, and laminate options. We went with solid core laminate and have zero regrets.
### Toilet Door for Our Common Bathroom – Aluminium Bifold
While we were at it, we did the common bathroom too. That one got a premium aluminium bifold door.
Perfect for tighter spaces. It folds almost completely flat, giving nearly 100% opening clearance.
For anyone needing a toilet door replacement, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has basic ($189), premium ($199-229), and top hung roller ($259-269) options. Something for every budget.

## Tips for Anyone Considering a Slide and Swing Door
If you're still reading, here is my advice from someone who has been through it:
1. **Measure your doorway first|Get your measurements sorted early** – You'll need them anyway, so do it upfront.
2. **Have the decision-maker home for measurement|Make sure the boss is home** – Don't send someone who can't say "yes" or "no" to colours and designs. Learn from my mistake!
3. **Be patient with the 14-21 day wait|Expect a 3-4 week wait** – It's normal. Good doors take time to manufacture.
4. **Pay via PayNow or bank transfer – no cheques|Use PayNow – it's easiest** – Cash, PayNow, PayLah, or bank transfer only. Super simple.
5. **Check the door thoroughly before the installer leaves|Test everything before they pack up** – Swing it, slide it, lock it, unlock it. Make sure you're 100% happy. Once they are gone, it's harder to fix issues.
6. **Book an appointment before visiting their showroom|Don't just show up** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp 9898 9268 first or you'll be staring at a locked door.
