We Fixed Our Tiny HDB Toilet – Here's What Worked
Fed up with your bathroom door hitting everything in sight?
We know the struggle.
Our space saving journey started with one simple question: how to fix a door that hits the toilet?
Here is our real customer story after one month.

## {How This Trackless Toilet Door Works
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 **opens like a regular door**. Because it slides first, it needs **way less space** to open.
The benefits that sold us:
- **No bottom track** – No more cleaning mouldy tracks
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – I can actually open the door without hitting the washing machine
- **Built for Singapore's climate** – No warping like old wooden doors
- **Sleek finish** – Looks modern and expensive
{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.

## {Why We Needed a HDB Toilet Door Replacement
Let me paint you a picture of our old HDB toilet door.
The bottom track collected hair, dust, and mould.
We tried ignoring the problem for far too long.
My late night searches included:
- "space saving toilet door Singapore"
- "best door for small toilet Singapore"
- "bifold door alternatives"
That's how I discovered **Renovaid Team**.

## The Ordering Process – Step by Step
Here is a play by play of our toilet door replacement journey.
### How We Got Started
I sent a WhatsApp message to **9898 9268**.
They responded quickly – strictly WhatsApp only, which I actually appreciated.
- Doorway measurements
- HDB location
- Our requirements
Saves time.
### Step 2: Free On-Site Measurement
We scheduled a **free on-site measurement** .
On the day of the visit:
- The guy showed up on time
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – white powder coated finish
- He measured everything twice like a true professional
One thing to know: 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
After we approved everything and paid the deposit, we were told installation would take **about 3-4 weeks**. Ours took exactly 18 days.
Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when installation day finally arrived, it was worth every day.
### Step 4: Installation Day
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a 1-2 hour arrival window. They gave us a morning slot.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. 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
- Cleaned up everything before leaving
Before packing up, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were completely satisfied. He even showed us how to maintain it.
Settled the balance – no surprises, no hidden fees.

## Would We Recommend It?
After four weeks of daily use: **We absolutely love it.**
### The Advantages
| Feature | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Saving** | No more door-to-toilet collisions. Game changer for compact Singapore toilets. |
| **Trackless Floor** | I just mop right under the door. Goodbye mouldy bifold door grooves. |
| **How It Feels** | Glides like butter. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water Resistance** | Zero swelling, warping, or rot. Perfect for Singapore's humidity. |
| **Aesthetics** | Looks way more expensive than $399. Modern and premium. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
I'm struggling to find negatives, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Wait time** – 18 days felt long, but they warned us. Plan your renovation schedule accordingly.
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you cancel after measurement. Just be aware before booking.
- **No walk-ins** – Their Woodlands showroom is strictly by appointment. So message before you go.
Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

## What We Paid – No Hidden Costs
We took advantage of their current promotion:
**Single door package – $399 all-in**
And here is exactly what that $399 covered:
- ✅ Free home visit
- ✅ Free delivery
- ✅ Professional installation
- ✅ Free disposal of old door
No hidden fees. No surprises. No fine print.
What they quoted is what we paid. In Singapore renovation terms, that's practically a unicorn.
If you need a pair, the promotion is **$780 for two sets** – saves you $18.
Heads up: The promotion is valid until **31 May 2026**, so don't wait too long.

## How We Ended Up Replacing All Our Doors
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
Our old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap.
The difference is night and day.
The laminate finish is durable and pet-friendly and moisture resistant.
They have options for all price points:
- Budget friendly
- Solid core
- Nyatoh plywood
- Natural wood look
- Scratch resistant
We went with the premium option and have zero regrets.
### We Did the Common Toilet 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.
The bifold is great for narrower spaces.
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
Something for every budget.
