Fed up with your bathroom door hitting everything in sight?
We know the struggle.
Our space saving journey started with one simple question: what is the best door for a small toilet?
Today, I'm sharing our honest experience with the **Slide and Swing Door** from **Renovaid Team**.

## {How This HDB Bathroom Door Works
Let me explain what makes this compact bathroom door so special.
In simple terms: the door **glides sideways** like a pocket door, then **opens like a regular door**. Because it slides first, it needs **minimal clearance** to open.
The benefits that sold us:
- **Trackless floor** – Finally, a toilet door without bottom track!
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – Our bathroom feels twice as spacious
- **Built for Singapore's climate** – No swelling like old wooden doors
- **Sleek finish** – We chose the white powder coated finish
{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)** . The photos look great, but it's even better in person.

## {The Problem with Old Bifold Doors
Let me paint you a picture of our old HDB toilet door.
Every time someone opened the door, it banged against the sink.
After countless muttered frustrations, we knew we needed a better solution.
My late night searches included:
- "compact bathroom door HDB"
- "HDB toilet door replacement"
- "bifold door alternatives"
And that's when everything changed.

## {Finding a BCA Registered Contractor|Renovaid Team Review – First Impressions
I'll be honest – I was skeptical at first.
But here is what stood out to me:
| Feature | Our Take |
|-----------------|---------------------------|
| **BCA Registration** | Not every door company has this |
| **Local Production** | Better quality control |
| **Since 2014** | They know HDB requirements |
| **No Hidden Fees** | What they quote is what you pay |
If you also need doors for other rooms, Renovaid Team has an impressive range of **[bedroom doors](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** too. More on that later.

## Our Experience from Start to Finish
Here is a play by play of our Renovaid Team experience.
### Step 1: First Contact – 9898 9268
The first thing I did was message their WhatsApp number.
They responded quickly – no phone calls needed.
- Door size
- Postal code
- Our requirements
Makes the process smoother.
### Step 2: Home Visit
We scheduled a **complimentary home visit** .
What happened during the visit:
- The guy showed up on time
- more info 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.
Also, make sure the **person who calls the shots** is home. Learn from my mistake!
### Step 3: The 14-21 Day Wait
Once we signed off, we were told installation would take **14 to 21 working days**. Ours took exactly 18 days.
I was getting antsy by week three. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth every day.
### Step 4: The Big 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. Friendly, uniformed, and fully prepared..
He:
- Removed our old rotting wooden door
- Installed the new slide and swing door
- Made sure there was no mess
Before he left, he asked us to try opening and closing it to make sure we were completely satisfied. Great after-sales service.
We paid the final payment on the spot via PayNow.

## Would We Recommend It?
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 small HDB bathrooms. |
| **Trackless Floor** | Cleaning is SO easy now. 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 HDB bathrooms. |
| **Looks** | Looks way more expensive than $399. Contemporary and expensive. |
### What Could Be Better
Honestly, there's very little to dislike, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Lead time** – 18 days felt long, but they warned us. Plan your renovation schedule accordingly.
- **Cancellation fee** – Fair, but good to know. Just be aware before booking.
- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. WhatsApp first!
Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

The price included:

## One Good Door Led to Another
Here is the funny part – We were so impressed with the slide and swing, we ended up replacing ALL our old doors.
### Our New Bedroom Doors
You could hear everything through them.
We upgraded to **solid core laminate bedroom doors** from Renovaid Team.
Perfect for HDB living.
They have options for every budget:
- Hollow core
- Premium option
- Nyatoh plywood
- Natural wood look
- Scratch resistant
We went with the premium option 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 range.
It folds almost completely flat.
For anyone needing a toilet door replacement, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has:
- Entry level
- Mid range
- Top hung roller ($259-269)
Truly something for everyone.
