From Cramped to Spacious: Our Slide and Swing Door Journey

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. 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. Keywords like "HDB toilet door" and "bathroom door Singapore" were my constant search companions.

That's how I stumbled upon Renovaid Team.

At first, I was skeptical. There are so many door suppliers in Singapore. But the more I read, the more I liked what I saw.

They had:

- Proper credentials – BCA registered and Bizsafe certified

- Direct factory manufacturing in Singapore

- Been around since 2014 – that's a good sign

- Clear pricing with no hidden costs

After a few days of research and comparing with other suppliers, 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 ended up getting our bedroom doors from them as well – more on that later.

## How It Works (In Simple Terms)

I'll admit – I had no idea what a "slide and swing" door was at first. How can it be both?

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). The sliding motion means it doesn't need that big clearance arc.

The features that sold us:

- **Trackless design** – I hate cleaning those gross bifold door tracks. Mould city. Never again.

- **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.

- **Water resistant** – No more worrying about swelling or rotting.

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)** . 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. They asked for basic info like door size and HDB type.

Quick tip: Measure your doorway first before reaching out. It saves time and makes the process smoother.

### Free On-Site Visit

They sent a technician to our flat to measure the doorway. No endless phone trees or waiting on hold.

On the day of the measurement:

- 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: A 50% deposit or minimum $100 is required during measurement. We used PayNow – super easy. 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. We learnt that the hard way!

### Step 3: Waiting for Installation

Once we paid and signed off, 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. 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 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 try opening and closing the door to make sure we were happy. He showed us how the mechanism works and how to clean it.

Final payment was made on the spot – again 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 are genuinely thrilled with it.**

### What We Love

| Aspect | What We Think |

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

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

| **No bottom track** | Cleaning is SO easy now. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. My knees are grateful. |

| **How it feels** | The mechanism is so smooth. No squeaking, no sticking. |

| **Humidity proof** | We've had zero issues with swelling. 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)

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.

- **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. 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 to our flat

- ✅ Professional installation

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

Here is the funny part – We were so impressed with the slide and swing door, we ended up getting Renovaid to replace every door in our house.

### 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 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 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. That one got a premium aluminium bifold door.

The bifold is great for narrower 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.

## What I Wish I Knew Before Ordering

If you're still reading, here is my hard-earned advice:

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** – 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 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.
