Slide and Swing Door Singapore: Renovaid Team Review After 1 Month
Fed up with your toilet door hitting everything in sight?
We were too.
Our space saving journey started with one simple question: how to fix a door that hits the more info toilet?
Here is our real customer story after living with it daily.

## {How This HDB Bathroom Door Works
Let me explain what makes this space saving toilet door so special.
Simply put: the door **slides to the side first** like a pocket door, then **swings open**. Because it slides first, it needs **way less space** to open.
The benefits that sold us:
- **No bottom track** – Finally, a easy clean bathroom door!
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine
- **Built for Singapore's climate** – Made of aluminium and acrylic
- **Modern aesthetic** – We chose the grey powder coated finish
{Curious about the design options? **[Check out Renovaid Team's Slide and Swing Door page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . The photos look great, but it's even better in person.

## {Our Compact Toilet Nightmare
Our old wooden swing door was a constant annoyance.
Every time someone opened the door, it hit the toilet bowl.
We tried living with it for months.
My late night searches included:
- "compact bathroom door HDB"
- "best door for small toilet Singapore"
- "bifold door alternatives"
That's how I stumbled upon **Renovaid Team**.

## {Finding a Trustworthy Door Supplier|Renovaid Team Review – First Impressions
There are plenty of companies offering toilet door replacement.
What made them different:
| Feature | Why It Mattered |
|-----------------|---------------------------|
| **Proper Credentials** | Not every door company has this |
| **Local Production** | Better quality control |
| **Since 2014** | They know HDB requirements |
| **Transparent Pricing** | No "surprise" charges |
By the way, 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 – that's how happy we were.

## From WhatsApp to Installation
Here is a step by step breakdown of our Renovaid Team experience.
### How We Got Started
I sent a text to **9898 9268**.
They asked for:
- Doorway measurements
- HDB location
- What type of door we needed
**Pro tip:** Have your doorway size on hand before you message.
### Step 2: Free On-Site Measurement
We scheduled a **free on-site measurement** .
On the day of the visit:
- The guy showed up on time
- He brought finish options and brochures
- We picked our preferred style – grey frame with acrylic panel
- He double checked all dimensions like a true professional
One thing to know: A 50% deposit or minimum $100 is required during the visit. We paid via PayNow – super easy.
Also, make sure the **decision maker** is home. Ask me how I know.
### Be Patient – Quality Takes Time
After we approved everything and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take **about 3-4 weeks**. We waited 18 days – right in the middle of their estimate.
I was getting antsy by week three. But when installation day finally arrived, it was completely worth the wait.
### Step 4: Installation Day
The night before, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a 1-2 hour arrival window. Ours was 10am-12pm.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. Professional, polite, and clearly experienced.
He:
- Hauled away the old door (it was disgusting at the bottom)
- Installed the new slide and swing door
- Made sure there was no mess
Before he left, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were completely satisfied. Great after-sales service.
We paid the final payment on the spot via PayNow.

## Living with the Slide and Swing Door
It's been over a month now, and here is my unfiltered opinion: **We absolutely love it.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Feature | Our Experience |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Efficiency** | Bathroom feels 50% bigger. Game changer for compact Singapore toilets. |
| **No Bottom Track** | I just mop right under the door. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. |
| **How It Feels** | Glides like butter. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water Resistance** | Looks exactly like day one. Perfect for HDB bathrooms. |
| **Looks** | Looks way more expensive than $399. Modern and expensive. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
Honestly, there's very little to dislike, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they warned us. Plan your renovation schedule accordingly.
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you cancel after measurement. Just be aware before booking.
- **No walk-ins** – You can't just show up at their showroom. So message before you go.
That's literally it.

## What We Paid – No Hidden Costs
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
The price included:
- ✅ Free on-site measurement
- ✅ Free delivery
- ✅ BCA registered contractor installation
- ✅ Free removal and haul away
No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".
The price was the price. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.
If you need a pair, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – saves you $18.
Just a reminder: The promotion is valid until **31 May 2026**, so don't sleep on it.

## How We Ended Up Replacing All Our Doors
This surprised even me: we were so happy with the toilet door, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Our New Bedroom Doors
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap.
We upgraded to **solid core laminate bedroom doors** from Renovaid Team.
The laminate finish is durable and pet-friendly and water-resistant.
They have options for every budget:
- Hollow core
- Premium option
- Timber finish
- Veneer
- Scratch resistant
We went with solid core laminate and have no complaints.
### Toilet Door for Our Common Bathroom – Aluminium Bifold
We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. This time we went with a **premium aluminium bifold door** from Renovaid Team's range.
The bifold is perfect for smaller openings.
For anyone needing a new bathroom door, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has:
- Entry level
- Premium ($199-229)
- Premium option
Truly something for everyone.
