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 far too many bruised elbows and muttered frustrations, we finally decided to do something about our ridiculously small HDB toilet. Best decision we made for our 2026 renovation.
Let me share our journey – from frustrated homeowners to happy customers.

## How We Found Renovaid Team
Like most people, I started on Google. 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. Another home improvement company? But the more I read, the more I liked what I saw.
What stood out to me:
- 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 give them a try.
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 read more and Swing Door – What Even Is That?
I'll admit – I had no idea what a "slide and swing" door was at first. Is it a sliding door? Is it a swing door?
Their team broke it down for me in plain English:
The door first slides to the side (like a sliding door), then swings open (like a regular door). 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. Our old bifold door had a track that collected hair, dust, and who-knows-what-else.
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – I can actually walk in without doing a sideways shuffle.
- **White or grey powder-coated finish** – We went with grey and it looks so sleek.
- **Built for humidity** – Made of aluminium and acrylic, not wood that will swell.

## From WhatsApp to Installation
Let me walk you through exactly what happened, so you know what to expect.
### Step 1: The WhatsApp Message
I sent a WhatsApp message to 9898 9268. No calls – they are strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
Response time was surprisingly quick – a few hours. They asked for basic info like door size and HDB type.
Quick tip: Have your measurements ready before you message. It saves time and makes the process smoother.
### Step 2: Booking the Measurement
We scheduled a free on-site measurement. No endless phone trees or waiting on hold.
The day of the visit:
- They actually showed up when they said they would – refreshing, I know
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – grey frame with a simple acrylic panel
- He measured everything twice (professional!)
One thing to know: You need to put down a deposit (50% or $100 minimum) during the visit. No cheque – we paid via PayNow. 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.
### The 14-21 Day Wait
After we confirmed the design and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take 14 to 21 working days. Ours took 18 working days – right in the middle of the estimate.
I was getting impatient by week three. 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. They gave us a 10am-12pm window.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. Professional, polite, and clearly knew what he was doing.
The whole thing took about an hour and a half. 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. Even showed us how to maintain the trackless mechanism.
We paid the remaining balance on the spot via PayNow. Exactly what they quoted.

## Living with the Slide and Swing Door
It's been over a month now, and here is my honest take: **We are genuinely thrilled with it.**
### What We Love
| Aspect | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space efficiency** | I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine. Game changer for small HDB bathrooms. |
| **No bottom track** | Cleaning is SO easy now. I just sweep and mop straight through. My knees are grateful. |
| **Smooth operation** | The mechanism is so smooth. Quiet, no squeaking, no jamming. |
| **Water resistance** | We've had zero issues with swelling. Looks exactly the same as day one. |
| **Aesthetics** | The grey powder-coated finish is gorgeous. Looks way more expensive than $399. |
### Minor Downsides
Honestly, I'm reaching for complaints here, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Waiting period** – 18 days was tough, but they were upfront about it. So order early if you're on a deadline.
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you bail after measurement. Reasonable, just be aware.
- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. So WhatsApp before you go.
That's all I've got. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

## What We Paid – No Hidden Costs
The promotion we got was:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
And here is exactly what that $399 included:
- ✅ Free measurement (they came to us)
- ✅ Free delivery to our flat
- ✅ Professional installation by a BCA-registered contractor
- ✅ Free removal and disposal of the old door
No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".
What they quoted is what we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.
For two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – even better value..
The promotion is valid until 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 replacing ALL our old doors.
### 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.
So much quieter and more solid. 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)** . Options for every budget, from hollow core to premium nyatoh timber. We chose solid core laminate – no regrets.
### The Second Bathroom Got an Upgrade Too
We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. That one got a premium aluminium bifold door.
The bifold is great for narrower 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.

## What I Wish I Knew Before Ordering
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** – It saves time when you WhatsApp them.
2. **Have the decision-maker home for measurement|Make sure the boss is home** – Seriously. Don't send your helper or a family member who can't make decisions. 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 drive away, it's a whole process to get them back.
6. **Book an appointment before visiting their showroom|Don't just show up** – Their Harvest building in Woodlands is NOT a walk-in store. WhatsApp 9898 9268 first or you'll be staring at a locked door.
