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.
Trust me, I feel your pain.
After far too many bruised elbows and muttered frustrations, 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.

## How We Found Renovaid Team
Like most people, I started on Google. Keywords like "HDB toilet door" and "bathroom door Singapore" were my constant search companions.
That's when I came across Renovaid Team.
At first, I was skeptical. Another home improvement company? But something about them felt different.
What stood out to me:
- BCA registration (not every door company has this)
- A local factory, not just a middleman
- Been around since 2014 – that's a good sign
- Transparent pricing – no hidden "surprise" fees
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 were so happy with the toilet door that we came back for more.

## Understanding This "Hybrid" Door
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). Because it slides first, it needs way less space to open.
Here is what I love about it:
- **Trackless design** – I hate cleaning those gross bifold door tracks. 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.
To see what the door actually looks like, **[check out Renovaid Team's slide and swing door page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . Trust me, the photos don't do it justice – it's even better in person.

## From WhatsApp to Installation
Let me walk you through exactly what happened, so you know what to expect.
### Step 1: The WhatsApp Message
I nervously typed out my first message to their WhatsApp number. 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.
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
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We picked a grey frame with a clean, simple panel design
- He measured everything twice (professional!)
One thing to know: A 50% deposit or minimum $100 is required during measurement. 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.
Make sure the **decision-maker** is home for the measurement. We learnt that the hard way!
### The 14-21 Day Wait
After we confirmed the design and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take about 3-4 weeks. 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 evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message in the evening with a 1 to 2-hour arrival window. Our slot was 10 AM to 12 PM.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. Professional, polite, and clearly knew what he was doing.
The whole installation took about 1.5 hours. 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 packing up, he asked us to test 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. No surprises, no hidden fees.

## Our Honest Review – One Month Later
Now that we've had the door for over a month, **We absolutely love it.**
### What We Love
| Aspect | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space efficiency** | Our bathroom feels 50% bigger. No joke. No more door-to-toilet collisions. |
| **No bottom track** | I just mop right under the door. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. My back thanks me. |
| **How it feels** | Glides like butter. Quiet, no squeaking, no jamming. |
| **Humidity proof** | We've had zero issues with swelling. The old wooden door was swollen at the bottom – this one looks brand new. |
| **Looks** | The grey powder-coated finish is gorgeous. Looks modern and expensive. |
### Minor Downsides
Honestly, I'm reaching for complaints here, but if I had to nitpick:
- **The wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they did warn us. So order early if you're on a deadline.
- **The $40 fee if you cancel** – Fair, but good to know.
- **Strictly by appointment only** – You can't just show up at their showroom. So WhatsApp before you go.
That's all I've got. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

## What We Paid – No Hidden Costs
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**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 removal and disposal of the old door
No hidden GST. No extra fees. No surprises.
What they quoted is what we paid. And in renovation-land, that's practically a unicorn.
For 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.

## We Loved It So Much – We Bought More Doors!
Here is the funny part – We were so impressed with the slide and swing door, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Our New Bedroom Doors
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 surface is scratch-resistant (essential with our menace of a cat) and water-resistant.
If you are shopping for bedroom doors, I highly recommend checking out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . They have hollow HDB toilet door replacement core, solid core, nyatoh plywood, veneer, and laminate options. We chose solid core laminate – no regrets.
### Toilet Door for Our Common Bathroom – Aluminium Bifold
While we were at it, we did the common bathroom too. This time we went with a **premium aluminium bifold door** from Renovaid Team's toilet door range.
The bifold is great for narrower spaces. Folds almost flat – incredible clearance.
If you need a toilet door, 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 made it this far, 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** – They don't take cheques. Cash, PayNow, PayLah, or bank transfer only.
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 first or you will be turned away.
