## {What is a Slide & Swing Toilet Door
Let me explain what makes this compact bathroom door so special.
In simple terms: the door **slides to the side first** like a pocket door, then **swings open**. Because it slides first, it needs **minimal clearance** to open.
The benefits that sold us:
- **No bottom track** – No more scrubbing gunk out of bifold door grooves
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – Our bathroom feels 50% bigger
- **Waterproof & humidity resistant** – No rotting 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 Traditional Swing Doors
Our old bifold door was a nightmare.
The bottom track collected hair, dust, and mould.
We tried ignoring the problem for far too long.
That's when I started Googling for terms like:
- "space saving toilet door Singapore"
- "best door for small toilet Singapore"
- "bifold door alternatives"
And that's when everything changed.

## The Ordering Process – Step by Step
Here is a play by play of our toilet door replacement journey.
### Step 1: First Contact – 9898 9268
The first thing I did was message their WhatsApp number.
They replied within a few hours – strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
- Doorway measurements
- Postal code
- Our requirements
Saves time.
### Step 2: Free On-Site Measurement
We scheduled a **free on-site measurement** .
On the day of the visit:
- The technician arrived within the promised window
- He brought finish options and brochures
- We picked our preferred style – white powder coated finish
- He double checked all dimensions like a true professional
**Important note:** A deposit is required during the visit. No cheques – we used PayNow.
Also, make sure the **decision maker** is home. Learn from my mistake!
### Step 3: The Manufacturing Period
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.
I was getting antsy by week three. But when they finally messaged us, it was worth every day.
### Step 4: 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.
He:
- Removed our old rotting wooden door
- Put in our brand new space saving door
- Cleaned up everything before leaving
Before packing up, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were completely satisfied. Great after-sales service.
Settled the balance – no surprises, no hidden fees.

## Would We Recommend It?
It's been over a month now, and here is my unfiltered opinion: **We absolutely love it.**
### The Good (Lots of This)
| Feature | Our Experience |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Efficiency** | Bathroom feels 50% bigger. Game changer for compact Singapore toilets. |
| **Trackless Floor** | I just mop right under the door. No more scrubbing gunk out of tracks. |
| **How It Feels** | Glides like butter. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water Resistance** | Looks exactly like day one. Perfect for HDB bathrooms. |
| **Looks** | The grey powder coated finish is gorgeous. Contemporary and premium. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
I'm struggling to find negatives, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Wait time** – 3 weeks was tough but expected. Order early if you're in a rush
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you cancel after measurement. 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.

## The Price – Let's Talk Money
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
And here is exactly what that $399 covered:
- ✅ Free on-site measurement
- ✅ Free shipping to our flat
- ✅ Professional installation
- ✅ Free removal and haul away
No GST surprise. No "transportation fee". No "weekend surcharge".
The price was the price. In HDB door replacement terms, that's basically a miracle.
For two doors, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – even better value.
Heads up: The promotion is valid until **31 May 2026**, so don't wait too long.

## One Good Door Led to Another
This surprised even me: we were so happy with the toilet door, we ended up getting Renovaid to do every door in our house.
### Bedroom Doors – Solid Core Laminate
You could hear everything through them.
The difference is night and day.
The laminate finish is scratch-resistant (important with our crazy cat) and water-resistant.
They have options for every budget:
- Budget friendly
- Premium option
- Timber finish
- Veneer
- Laminate
We went with solid core laminate and have no complaints.
### Toilet Door for Our Common Bathroom – Aluminium Bifold
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.
For anyone needing a new bathroom door, their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** has:
- Basic ($189)
- Mid range
- Top hung roller ($259-269)
Truly something for everyone.
