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 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.
Here is our honest, no-fluff experience buying and installing a **Slide and Swing Door** from **Renovaid Team**.

## 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 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.
They had:
- 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 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.

## 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?
The friendly team at Renovaid explained it simply:
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.
The features that sold us:
- **No bottom track** – This was HUGE for us. Mould city. Never again.
- **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.
- **Water resistant** – No more worrying about swelling 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)** . Trust me, the photos don't do it justice – it's even better in person.

## From WhatsApp to Installation
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. No calls – they are strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
They replied within a few hours. Asked me for my door size, location, and what I needed.
A friendly heads-up: Measure your doorway first before reaching out. Saves a lot of back-and-forth.
### Free On-Site Visit
We scheduled a free on-site measurement. No endless phone trees or waiting on hold.
The day of the visit:
- The technician arrived within the promised 1-2 hour window
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We picked a grey frame with a clean, simple panel design
- He measured everything twice (professional!)
Important note: You need to put down a deposit (50% or $100 minimum) during the visit. No cheque – we paid via PayNow. And if you change your mind, there's a $40 fee – fair enough, their time isn't free.
Make sure the **decision-maker** is home for the measurement. We learnt that the hard way!
### 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 installation day came, it was worth it.
### Step 4: Installation Day
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message in the evening with a time window for arrival. Our slot was 10 AM to 12 PM.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. He was friendly, wore a uniform, and had all the tools ready.
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 he left, 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. Exactly what they quoted.

## Living with the Slide and Swing Door
Now that we've had the door for over a month, **We are genuinely thrilled with it.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Feature | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space saving** | Our bathroom feels 50% bigger. No joke. No more door-to-toilet collisions. |
| **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. Quiet, no squeaking, no jamming. |
| **Water resistance** | We've had zero issues with swelling. Looks exactly the same as day one. |
| **Aesthetics** | The grey finish is stunning. Looks way more expensive than $399. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
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. Plan ahead if you're in a rush.
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you bail after measurement. Reasonable, just be aware.
- **Strictly by appointment only** – You can't just show up at their showroom. WhatsApp first!
That's literally it. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

## The Price – Let's Talk Money
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**1 Set Slide & Swing Toilet Door – $399 Nett**
And here is exactly what that $399 included:
- ✅ Free on-site measurement
- ✅ Free delivery
- ✅ Professional installation
- ✅ Free disposal of our old door
No hidden GST. No extra fees. No website surprises.
The price we were quoted was the price we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.
For two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – even better value..
Just a heads up – this offer ends 31 May 2026, so don't wait too long if you're interested.

## One Good Door Led to Another
Here is the funny part – We were so impressed with the slide and swing door, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Bedroom Doors – Solid Core Laminate
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap. Zero soundproofing.
We upgraded to **solid core laminate bedroom doors** from Renovaid Team.
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)** . They have hollow core, solid core, nyatoh plywood, veneer, and laminate options. We went with solid core laminate and have zero regrets.
### The Second Bathroom Got an Upgrade Too
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.
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.

## 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** – 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** – Open it, close it, check the lock, check the swing. 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.
