If you're reading this, chances are you're struggling with the same problem we had. Every single time.
Trust me, I feel your pain.
After months of putting up with it, we finally decided to do something about our ridiculously small HDB toilet. And I'm so glad we did.
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 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)
- A local factory, not just a middleman
- Over 10 years of experience
- Clear pricing with no hidden costs
After reading reviews and comparing options, we decided to give them a try.
By the way, if you need doors for other rooms, 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.

## How It Works (In Simple Terms)
When I first heard the name, I was confused. How can it be both?
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.
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.
- **Space-saving magic** – Our bathroom feels twice as big now.
- **Modern look** – We chose the grey powder-coated finish.
- **Built for humidity** – Made of aluminium and acrylic, not wood that will swell.
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)** . Way nicer in real life than on screen.

## 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 nervously typed out my first message to their WhatsApp number. 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: Have your measurements ready before you message. Saves a lot of back-and-forth.
### 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
- Double-checked all measurements like a true pro
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.
Make sure the **decision-maker** is home for the measurement. 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 about 3-4 weeks. It ended up being exactly 18 days.
I was getting impatient by week three. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth it.
### The Big Day
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message between 5 PM and 8 PM 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 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 packing up, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were happy. Even showed us how to maintain the trackless mechanism.
Final payment was made on the spot – again 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.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Aspect | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space efficiency** | I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine. 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** | The mechanism is so smooth. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water resistance** | No swelling, no warping, no rot. Looks exactly the same as day one. |
| **Looks** | The grey powder-coated finish is gorgeous. Looks modern and expensive. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
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. WhatsApp first!
That's literally it. I'm reaching for complaints here.

## The Price – Let's Talk Money
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
And here is what that $399 covered:
- ✅ Free measurement (they came to us)
- ✅ Free delivery
- ✅ Professional installation by a BCA-registered contractor
- ✅ Free disposal of our old door
No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".
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** – even better value..
Just a heads up – this offer ends 31 May 2026, so don't wait too long if you're interested.

## How We Ended Up Getting Bedroom and Main Doors Too
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
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap. You could hear everything through them.
We upgraded to solid core laminate doors – and check here 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 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 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
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. 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. Truly something for every wallet.

## Tips for Anyone Considering a Slide and Swing Door
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. Learn from my mistake!
3. **Be patient with the 14-21 day wait|Expect a 3-4 week wait** – Quality takes time. Plan your renovation schedule around it.
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 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.
