How to Choose a Vertical Lambo Door Kit: A Buyer's Guide

Thinking about upgrading your car with vertical (Lambo-style) doors? Before you buy, here's what actually separates a good kit from a bad one β€” and how to buy with confidence as an authorized Vertical Doors Inc dealer.

1. Bolt-On vs. Weld-On Kits

Always choose a direct bolt-on kit that mounts to your vehicle's factory bolt pattern. Weld-on kits can permanently alter your car's structure, lower resale value, and are far riskier to install. Every Vertical Doors Inc kit we sell is a reversible, bolt-on design β€” no cutting or welding required.

2. Hinge Material and Construction

Cheap imported kits often use thin stamped steel that fatigues over time. Genuine Vertical Doors Inc hinges are made from hardened 3/8”–1/2” domestic steel and are patented in the USA β€” built to hold up to daily use, not just car shows.

3. Gas Shocks Matter More Than You'd Think

The gas shocks determine how smoothly (and safely) your doors lift. Underrated shocks strain the hinge and wear out fast. Every VDI kit ships with shocks matched to your specific vehicle's door weight.

4. Check Who You're Actually Buying From

Before buying from any lambo door seller, check reviews, confirm they can be reached by phone, and ask if the kit is genuinely manufactured by Vertical Doors Inc or a lower-cost copy. As an authorized reseller, we stand behind every kit with direct phone support β€” (725) 780-8324 β€” for fitment questions before and after your purchase.

5. Installation Options

Most bolt-on kits can be installed by any competent home mechanic with basic tools in a weekend. If you'd rather not DIY, we also offer at-home mobile installation on select vehicles β€” our installer comes to you.
