Are you tired of your bathroom door feeling like a shoebox?
We were too.
After months of frustration, we finally found the perfect solution for our tiny HDB toilet.
Here is our real customer story after one month.

## {How This HDB Bathroom Door Works
If you've never heard of a slide & swing toilet door, don't worry – we hadn't either.
In simple terms: the door **slides to the side first** like a sliding door, then **swings open**. Because it slides first, it needs **way less space** to open.
The benefits that sold us:
- **Trackless floor** – No more scrubbing gunk out of bifold door grooves
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – Our bathroom feels 50% bigger
- **Built for Singapore's climate** – Made of aluminium and acrylic
- **Modern aesthetic** – Looks modern and expensive

## {The Problem with Old Bifold Doors
Let me paint you a picture of our previous bathroom situation.
Every time someone opened the door, it smashed into the washing machine.
We tried ignoring the problem for months.
That's when I started Googling for terms like:
- "space saving toilet door Singapore"
- "best door for small toilet Singapore"
- "trackless toilet door"
And that's when everything changed.

There are plenty of companies offering toilet door replacement.
What made them different:

## From WhatsApp to Installation
Here is a step by step breakdown of our toilet door replacement journey.
### Step 1: First Contact – 9898 9268
The first thing I did was message their WhatsApp number.
They asked for:
- Door size
- HDB location
- What type of door we needed
**Pro tip:** Have your measurements ready before you message.
### The Technician Came to Us
Booking was easy – just a few messages back and forth.
On the day of the visit:
- The guy showed up on time
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – grey frame with acrylic panel
- He measured everything twice like a true professional
**Important note:** A deposit is required during the visit. No cheques – we used PayNow.
Don't send your helper. Learn from my mistake!
### Be Patient – Quality Takes Time
Once we signed off, we were told installation would take **about 3-4 weeks**. We waited 18 days – right in the middle of their estimate.
Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth every day.
### What Happened on Installation Day
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a time slot. They gave us a morning slot.
The installer arrived at the promised time. Professional, polite, and clearly experienced.
The whole job was done in 90 minutes.
- Hauled away the old door (it was disgusting at the bottom)
- Put in our brand new space saving door
- Made sure there was no mess
Before packing up, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were 100% happy. He even explained the cleaning process.
Settled the balance – no surprises, no hidden fees.

## Living with the Slide and Swing Door
After 30 days of daily use: **We absolutely love it.**
### The Advantages
| Aspect | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Efficiency** | No more door-to-toilet collisions. Game changer for compact Singapore toilets. |
| **No Bottom Track** | I just mop right under the door. Goodbye mouldy bifold door grooves. |
| **Smooth Operation** | The mechanism is so smooth. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Humidity Proof** | Zero swelling, warping, or rot. Perfect for Singapore's humidity. |
| **Aesthetics** | The grey powder coated finish is gorgeous. Contemporary and expensive. |
### Honest Criticisms
Honestly, there's very little to dislike, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they warned us. Order early if you're in a rush
- **$40 charge** – Fair, but good to know. Just be aware before booking.
- **Appointment only** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. So message before you go.
That's all I've got.

## What We Paid – No Hidden Costs
Here is what we paid:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
And here is exactly what that $399 covered:
- ✅ Free home visit
- ✅ Free shipping to our flat
- ✅ BCA registered contractor installation
- ✅ Free disposal of old door
No hidden fees. No surprises. No fine print.
The price was the price. In Singapore renovation terms, that's practically a unicorn.
For two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – saves you $18.
Heads up: The promotion is valid until **31 May 2026**, so act fast if you're interested.

## 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.
### Bedroom Doors – Solid Core Laminate
Our old bedroom doors were flimsy and sounded hollow.
The difference is like chalk and cheese.
Perfect for HDB living.
They have options for all price points:
- Hollow core
- Solid core
- Timber finish
- Natural wood look
- Laminate
We went with solid core laminate and have no complaints.
### The Second Bathroom Got an Upgrade Too
We also replaced the door for our common bathroom. That one got a top hung roller bifold door.
The bifold is perfect for smaller openings.
If you need a toilet door, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has:
- Entry level
- Mid range
- Premium option
Truly something for everyone.
