Fed up with your toilet door hitting everything in sight?
We were too.
Our HDB toilet door replacement started with one simple question: how to fix a door that hits the toilet?
Today, I'm sharing our honest experience with the **Slide and Swing Door** from **Renovaid Team**.

## {What is a Slide & Swing Toilet Door
If you've never heard of a slide & swing toilet door, don't worry – we hadn't either.
Simply put: the door **glides sideways** like a sliding door, then **opens like a regular door**. Because it slides first, it needs **way less space** to open.
The advantages that sold us:
- **Trackless floor** – No more scrubbing gunk out of bifold door grooves
- **Space saving magic** – Our bathroom feels 50% bigger
- **Waterproof & humidity resistant** – Made of rust resistant materials
- **Modern aesthetic** – Looks way better than cheap bifold doors
{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)** . Trust me – it looks even better installed.

## {Our Compact Toilet Nightmare
Let me paint you a picture of our previous bathroom situation.
Every time someone opened the door, it hit the toilet bowl.
We tried ignoring the problem for months.
That's when I started Googling for terms like:
- "compact bathroom door HDB"
- "HDB toilet door replacement"
- "bifold door alternatives"
That's how I found **Renovaid Team**.

## What to Expect When You Order
Here is a step by step breakdown of our Renovaid Team experience.
### Step 1: First Contact – 9898 9268
I sent a text to **9898 9268**.
They responded quickly – strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
- Doorway measurements
- Postal code
- What type of door we needed
Makes the process smoother.
### Step 2: Free On-Site Measurement
Booking was easy – just a few messages back and forth.
On the day of the visit:
- The technician arrived within the promised window
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – white powder coated finish
- He double checked all dimensions like a true professional
**Important note:** A 50% deposit or minimum $100 is required during the visit. We paid via PayNow – super easy.
Don't send a family member who can't approve things. Learn from my mistake!
### Be Patient – Quality Takes Time
Once we signed off, we were told installation would take **14 to 21 working days**. We waited 18 days – right in the middle of their estimate.
Not gonna lie – the wait tested my patience. But when installation day finally arrived, it was completely worth the wait.
### What Happened on Installation Day
The night before, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a 1-2 hour arrival window. They gave us a morning slot.
The installer arrived at the promised time. Friendly, uniformed, and fully prepared..
The whole installation took about 1.5 hours.
- Removed our old rotting wooden door
- Put in our brand new space saving door
- Made sure there was no mess
Before packing up, he asked us to try opening and closing it to make sure we were completely satisfied. He even showed us how to maintain it.
Settled the balance – no surprises, no hidden fees.

## Our Honest Review – One Month Later
It's been over a month now, and here is my unfiltered opinion: **Best home improvement decision we made for 2026.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Feature | Our Experience |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Saving** | Bathroom feels 50% bigger. Game changer for compact Singapore toilets. |
| **No Bottom Track** | Cleaning is SO easy now. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. |
| **How It Feels** | Glides like butter. Quiet and effortless. |
| **Humidity Proof** | Zero swelling, warping, or rot. Perfect for HDB bathrooms. |
| **Aesthetics** | The grey powder coated finish is gorgeous. Modern and premium. |
### Minor Downsides
Honestly, there's very little to dislike, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Lead time** – 3 weeks was tough but expected. Order early if you're in a rush
- **$40 charge** – Fair, but good to know. Just be aware before booking.
- **Appointment only** – You can't just show up at their showroom. So message before you go.
Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

## One Good Door Led to Another
Here is the funny part – we were so happy with the toilet door, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Why We Upgraded Our Bedroom Doors Too
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap.
The difference is night and day.
Perfect for Singapore's climate.
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.
### We Did the Common Toilet Too
We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. That one got a top hung roller bifold door.
The bifold is great for narrower spaces.
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.
