## {Understanding This Compact Door Solution
If you've never heard of a slide & swing toilet door, don't worry – we hadn't either.
In simple terms: the door **glides sideways** like a sliding door, then **opens like a regular door**. Thanks to this trackless design, it needs **way less space** to open.
The advantages that sold us:
- **Trackless floor** – No more scrubbing gunk out of bifold door grooves
- **Nearly 100% opening clearance** – Our bathroom feels twice as spacious
- **Built for Singapore's climate** – Made of aluminium and acrylic
- **Sleek finish** – We chose the white powder coated finish

## What to Expect When You Order
Let me walk you through exactly what happened, so you know what to expect.
### Step 1: WhatsApp Message – 9898 9268
I sent a text to **9898 9268**.
They responded quickly – no phone calls needed.
- Door size
- HDB location
- Our requirements
**Pro tip:** Have your doorway size on hand before you message.
### Step 2: Free On-Site Measurement
Booking was easy – just a few messages back and forth.
On the day of the visit:
- The technician arrived within the promised window
- He brought finish options and brochures
- 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!
### Step 3: The Manufacturing Period
Once we signed off, we were told installation would take **about 3-4 weeks**. Ours took exactly 18 days.
I was getting antsy by week three. But when they finally messaged us, it was completely worth the wait.
### Step 4: The Big Day
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a time slot. Ours was 10am-12pm.
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
- Cleaned up everything before leaving
Before he left, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were 100% happy. Great after-sales service.
Settled the balance – no surprises, no hidden fees.

## Our Honest Review – One Month Later
It's been over a month now, and here is my unfiltered opinion: **Best home improvement decision we made for 2026.**
### The Benefits
| Aspect | What We Think |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|
| **Space Efficiency** | Bathroom feels 50% bigger. Game changer for small HDB bathrooms. |
| **No Bottom Track** | I just mop right under the door. Goodbye mouldy bifold door grooves. |
| **Smooth Operation** | The mechanism is so smooth. No squeaking, no sticking. |
| **Water Resistance** | Zero swelling, warping, or rot. Perfect for Singapore's humidity. |
| **Looks** | The grey powder coated finish is gorgeous. Sleek and premium. |
### The Not-So-Good (Very Little)
Honestly, there's very little to dislike, but if I had to nitpick:
- **Lead time** – 3 weeks was tough but expected. Plan your renovation schedule accordingly.
- **Cancellation fee** – $40 if you cancel after measurement. Reasonable – their time isn't free
- **No walk-ins** – You can't just show up at their showroom. So message before you go.
Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.
