Best Space Saving Door for HDB Toilets? Our $399 Experience

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.

## The Search for a Solution

My journey began with late-night Googling. 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.

They had:

- Proper credentials – BCA registered and Bizsafe certified

- A local factory, not just a middleman

- Over 10 years of experience

- Transparent pricing – no hidden "surprise" fees

After a few days of research and comparing with other suppliers, we decided to take the plunge.

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 were so happy with the toilet door that we came back for more.

## The Slide and Swing Door – What Even Is That?

When I first heard the name, I was confused. Is it a sliding door? Is it a swing door?

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). 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. Mould city. Never again.

- **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)** . Trust me, the photos don't do it justice – it's even better in person.

## The Ordering Process – Step by Step

Here is a play-by-play of our experience, so you know what to expect.

### Step 1: The WhatsApp Message

I sent a WhatsApp message to 9898 9268. 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: Measure your doorway first before reaching out. It saves time and makes the process smoother.

### Free On-Site Visit

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 picked a grey frame with a clean, simple panel design

- Double-checked all measurements like a true pro

Important note: 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.

### Step 3: Waiting for Installation

Once we paid and signed off, we were told installation would take 14 to 21 working days. 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 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. He was friendly, wore a uniform, and had all the tools ready.

The whole thing took about an hour and a half. 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. He showed us how the mechanism works and how to clean it.

We paid the remaining balance on the spot via PayNow. No surprises, no hidden fees.

## Would We Recommend It?

Now that we've had the door for over a month, **We absolutely love it.**

### The Good (Lots of This)

| Feature | What We Think |

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

| **Space saving** | 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. I just sweep and mop straight through. My knees are grateful. |

| **How it feels** | The mechanism is so smooth. Quiet, no squeaking, no jamming. |

| **Humidity proof** | No swelling, no warping, no rot. Looks exactly the same as day one. |

| **Aesthetics** | The grey finish is stunning. Looks modern more info and expensive. |

### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)

I'm struggling to find negatives, but if I had to nitpick:

- **Waiting period** – 18 days was tough, but they were upfront about it. Plan ahead if you're in a rush.

- **The $40 fee if you cancel** – Fair, but good to know.

- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp first!

That's literally it. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

## Was It Worth $399?

We took advantage of their current promotion:

**1 Set Slide & Swing Toilet Door – $399 Nett**

And here is what that $399 covered:

- ✅ Free on-site measurement

- ✅ Free delivery

- ✅ Professional installation by a BCA-registered contractor

- ✅ Free removal and disposal of the old door

No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".

The price we were quoted was the price we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's basically a miracle.

If you need two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – an even better deal.

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

This is the part that surprised even me: we were so happy with the toilet door, we ended up getting Renovaid to replace every door in our house.

### Bedroom Doors – Solid Core Laminate

Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap. Zero soundproofing.

We upgraded to **solid core laminate bedroom doors** from Renovaid Team.

So much quieter and more solid. The laminate surface is scratch-resistant (essential with our menace of a cat) and water-resistant.

If you're in the market, 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.

The bifold is great for narrower spaces. Folds almost flat – incredible 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. Something for every budget.

## Advice from a Happy Customer

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

1. **Measure your doorway first|Get your measurements sorted early** – It saves time when you WhatsApp them.

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** – They don't take cheques. Cash, PayNow, PayLah, or bank transfer only.

5. **Check the door thoroughly before the installer leaves|Test everything before they pack up** – Swing it, slide it, lock it, unlock it. Make sure you're 100% happy. Once they are gone, it's harder to fix issues.

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.

They did exactly what they said they would do.

- Quality product that actually works

- Clear, honest communication start to finish

The slide and swing door has genuinely improved our daily life. No more bruised hips. No more mouldy tracks. No more swollen wood.
