Let me guess – your HDB bathroom feels like a sardine can. A door that swings open and hits the toilet, the washing machine, or your knee.

Trust me, I feel your pain.

After months of putting up with it, we finally decided to do something about our tiny, cramped HDB toilet. And I'm so glad we did.

Let me share our journey – from frustrated homeowners to happy customers.

## The Search for a Solution

My journey began with late-night Googling. Keywords like "HDB toilet door" and "bathroom door Singapore" were my constant search companions.

That's when I came across 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

- Over 10 years of experience

- Transparent pricing – no hidden "surprise" fees

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 were so happy with the toilet door that we came back for more.

## The Slide 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:

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. Our old bifold door had a track that collected hair, dust, and who-knows-what-else.

- **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.

- read more **Built for humidity** – Made of aluminium and acrylic, not wood that will swell.

## The Ordering Process – Step by Step

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. Asked me for my door size, location, and what I needed.

A friendly heads-up: Have your measurements ready before you message. It saves time and makes the process smoother.

### Step 2: Booking the Measurement

They sent a technician to our flat to measure the doorway. 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

- 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.

### Step 3: Waiting for Installation

After we confirmed the design and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take about 3-4 weeks. It ended up being exactly 18 days.

Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth it.

### The Big Day

The night before, their office sent a WhatsApp message between 5 PM and 8 PM with a time window for arrival. They gave us a 10am-12pm window.

The guy showed up at 10:30am – right on time. Professional, polite, and clearly knew what he was doing.

The whole thing took about an hour and a half. He removed our old wooden door (which was literally rotting at the bottom – gross), 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 absolutely love it.**

### What We Love

| Aspect | Our Experience |

|-----------------|-------------------------------|

| **Space efficiency** | I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine. Game changer for small HDB bathrooms. |

| **Trackless floor** | I just mop right under the door. I just sweep and mop straight through. My back thanks me. |

| **How it feels** | Glides like butter. No squeaking, no sticking. |

| **Water resistance** | No swelling, no warping, no rot. The old wooden door was swollen at the bottom – this one looks brand new. |

| **Aesthetics** | The grey finish is stunning. Looks way more expensive than $399. |

### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)

I'm struggling to find negatives, but if I had to nitpick:

- **Waiting period** – 18 days was tough, but they were upfront about it. Plan ahead if you're in a rush.

- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you bail after measurement. Reasonable, just be aware.

- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp first!

That's all I've got. I'm reaching for complaints here.

## Was It Worth $399?

The promotion we got was:

**Single door package – $399 all-in**

And here is what that $399 covered:

- ✅ Free on-site measurement

- ✅ Free delivery to our flat

- ✅ Professional installation by a BCA-registered contractor

- ✅ Free disposal of our old door

No hidden GST. No extra fees. No surprises.

The price we were quoted was the price we paid. And in renovation-land, that's practically a unicorn.

If you need two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – an even better deal.

The promotion is valid until 31 May 2026, so don't sleep on it if you're thinking about it.

## How We Ended Up Getting Bedroom and Main Doors Too

This is the part that surprised even me: we were so happy with the toilet 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.

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 chose solid core laminate – no regrets.

### The Second Bathroom Got an Upgrade Too

We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. This time we went with a **premium aluminium bifold door** from Renovaid Team's toilet door range.

Perfect for tighter spaces. Folds almost flat – incredible 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** – 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. Trust me on this one.

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 first or you will be turned away.

## Stop Reading and Start Messaging

? **Address in Woodlands** – Do NOT just show up – WhatsApp first!

? **Operating Hours: Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, Sat 9am-4pm. Closed Sun & PH.**

Just send them a message with your door size and what you need.

## P.S. Don't Forget About the Promotion!

The $399 slide and swing door promotion is valid until **31 May 2026**.

If you're on the fence, I'd suggest messaging them now to lock in the price. You can always push the measurement date out.

Your future self will thank you.
