HDB Toilet Door Replacement — What Worked For Me (No Sponsorship)
Guys, can we talk for a sec — I couldn't take the door problem anymore.
For context , my page is mostly about home stuff. everyone keeps asking me: how to fix a toilet door that hits everything .
So here we go .
---
## My Old Door Was Honestly A Mess
{My flat is a BTO in Sengkang. Normal HDB la.
{The original toilet door? Total disaster. | It was one of those cheap developer-installed doors with the aluminium track that traps hair and dust.
Every time I opened the door , it would hit the toilet bowl . My roommate was annoyed .
{After way too long living like this , I finally went online to find a solution .
That's how I found them.

## What Made Me Decide
{Okay let me be real — I was skeptical at first . There are so many door suppliers in Singapore .
But here is what gave me peace of mind about Renovaid Team:
| What I Checked | What I Found |
|------------------------------|-----------------------|
| **Are they legit** | Yes — they are BCA registered CR18 . That's actually important for HDB renovations. |
| **Reviews** | Mostly positive feedback. People said they were professional and no hidden fees. |
| **Direct Factory** | They manufacture in Woodlands . This usually means better prices and quality control. |
| **Experience** | Since 2014 — that's over 10 years . So they probably know what they're doing. |
Also, they have a WhatsApp only policy which works for me . I hate phone calls anyway .

## Which Product I Chose
{I ended up getting their **Slide and Swing Door** . The hybrid door .
Here is why I picked this instead of a normal bifold:
{First — **no bottom track** . The mould situation is no joke . With this door, cleaning takes 2 seconds .
{Second — **the clearance thing** . Since it glides sideways before swinging, it doesn't need that awkward space to open. No more door-to-toilet collisions.
{Third — **humidity resistant** . Won't swell or rot. In our Singapore weather? Essential .
{I chose the grey powder coated finish . Way nicer than I expected .
For those curious about the design, **[check out their page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . The photos online are accurate .

## Step By Step, No BS
Let me break down what happened so you don't go in blind.
### 1. WhatsApp First
{I sent a WhatsApp to **9898 9268** . Took two minutes .
{They replied pretty fast — same day actually. Asked for basic info like flat type and measurements.
Pro tip from me: Measure your door opening first before you message . Saves time .
### Someone Came To My Flat
{They scheduled a free on-site measurement . Actually showed up when they said.
{He brought physical finish options to see. I picked grey with a simple panel.
{They took the deposit during this visit. I paid via PayNow .
⚠️ **Important:** Make sure the person making decisions is home for this. Don't send your helper or maid . Trust me on this.
### 3. The Wait
{After I approved the design and paid, they said about 3-4 weeks. Mine took exactly 18 days .
Honestly the wait tested my patience a bit. But they did warn me beforehand . I just tried to be patient .
### 4. Installation Day
The night before, they WhatsApp-ed me a 1-2 hour time window . Mine was 10am to 12pm .
{The installer came at around that time. Professional la.
Whole thing took about 1.5 hours . He:
- Removed and disposed of the old door
- Fixed the new one in
- Cleaned up the mess
Before leaving, he asked me to try opening and closing it. Even gave maintenance tips.
I paid the rest of the payment via PayNow. Exactly what they quoted.

## Living With It — Real Talk
{Okay so it's been over a month now. Here is my honest take .
**I really like it .**
### What I Love
- **Space saving ** — Seriously my bathroom feels way bigger . No more door hitting the toilet bowl .
- **No bottom track ** — I just mop right under the door. No scrubbing mouldy tracks .
- **Looks good ** — {The grey powder coated finish looks modern and expensive .
- ** Humidity proof** — No swelling, no warping, no rot . For Singapore weather? A must.
### The Not So Good
Honestly don't have much to complain about. But if I'm being super nitpicky:
- **The wait** — 3 weeks felt like forever . But they did warn me upfront .
- **Appointment only showroom** — You cannot just show up at their Woodlands place . A bit troublesome but ok la .
That's really it . Nothing to warn you about.

## One Good Door Led To More
This is the funny part — after the toilet door, I ended up replacing all my old doors .
### The Room Doors
{My old bedroom doors were flimsy and you could hear everything through them.
I upgraded to **solid core laminate doors** from them . Much quieter now . {The laminate finish is scratch resistant (important because I have a cat) and water resistant.
For those looking, check out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . Options from budget to premium.
### The Second Bathroom
For the other toilet, I got a **premium aluminium bifold door** from their **[toilet doors space saving door for small toilet page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** .
Fits perfectly. The bifold folds almost completely flat .

## Advice From Someone Who Did It
If this review helped and you want to buy, here is my tips:
1. ** Get your measurements ready** — You'll need it anyway.
2. ** The homeowner must be there** — Don't send your helper or someone who can't choose colours .
3. ** Be patient with the lead time** — Good doors take time to make .
4. ** Pay via PayNow or bank transfer** — They don't take cheques .
5. **Test the door before the installer leaves ** — Open and close it, check the lock, make sure you're happy .
6. ** Don't just show up** — You will be turned away if you walk in without booking.
