2019-2026 Chevrolet Silverado Vertical Door Conversion Kit
Vertical Doors, Inc. part number VDCCHEVYSILVER19 is the vehicle-specific Lambo Door Conversion Kit for the Chevrolet Silverado T1XX platform. Approved applications include the 2019-2026 Silverado 1500 and 2020-2026 Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD.
The system retains your Silverado's original front doors while converting their movement. Each converted door opens outward first, then raises vertically with gas shock assistance.
Important: This kit is for approved newer-generation Silverado applications. The 2019 Silverado 1500 LD and 2019 Silverado HD use the previous K2XX generation and require separate kit selection.
Real Support Before, During and After Installation
When you order a genuine Vertical Doors, Inc. kit, you're dealing directly with the manufacturer behind the hinge system.
Our team can help confirm your Silverado application before purchasing, answer technical and adjustment questions during installation, and assist with door operation or replacement components after the conversion.
Whether you're building your Silverado yourself or working with a custom shop, correct fitment and final door alignment matter.
Call 951-245-8669 or contact Vertical Doors, Inc. for fitment and technical assistance.
Chevrolet Silverado Lambo Doors for the T1XX Generation
The newer-generation Chevrolet Silverado has a strong front-end design, pronounced body lines, and the kind of full-size truck proportions that work well with a custom setup.
Whether you've got a lowered Silverado 1500 with aftermarket wheels, a Trail Boss build, or a customized Silverado HD, a Vertical Doors, Inc. conversion adds a different way to display the truck without replacing its original front door shells.
Open each converted door outward and raise it vertically at truck shows, weekend meets, cruises, photo shoots, or everyday stops.
The details matter once the doors are back down, too. Proper installation keeps the focus on clean door alignment, correct latch operation, wiring clearance, and smooth hinge movement.

How the Silverado Vertical Door Conversion Works
With the system installed and properly adjusted, open the door outward until it reaches the hinge system's designed stopping point. From there, raise the door vertically with assistance from the gas shock.
The door does not raise directly upward from its fully closed position.
Correct hinge positioning and adjustment are important for alignment, latch engagement, wiring clearance, and clearance around the fender and adjacent body panels.
Installation Requirements and Modifications
Vertical Doors, Inc. uses a vehicle-specific bolt-on hinge design. However, bolt-on does not mean installation is modification-free.
Depending on the application and vehicle condition, the installation may require body-panel removal, clearance trimming, wiring management, careful hinge positioning, and final door alignment.
Before Removing the Factory Hinges
Use 2-inch painter's tape to mark the door's original factory alignment before loosening or removing the hinges. Place tape across the door and adjacent body at multiple reference points, including near the hinge area, and draw matching alignment lines.
These reference marks help identify the original horizontal and vertical door position during reassembly and final adjustment.
During Installation
- Support the door safely throughout hinge removal and installation.
- Follow the supplied vehicle-specific instructions.
- Manage factory wiring before final hinge installation and adjustment.
- Perform required clearance or trimming work as specified by the installation instructions.
- Position the gas shocks and hinge stops correctly.
- Test the door's outward and upward movement.
- Verify latch engagement, weather sealing, wiring clearance, and surrounding body-panel clearance.
- Complete final alignment checks before driving.
If you're unfamiliar with automotive door alignment, drilling or tapping where applicable, body-panel removal, trimming, or wiring clearance, have a qualified automotive customization or body shop complete the installation.
Chevrolet Silverado Installation Options
For Silverado owners, we recommend discussing the installation with the Vertical Doors, Inc. team or a qualified independent shop experienced with aftermarket hinge conversions.
Can the Silverado Be Returned to Factory Hinges?
The conversion retains the original factory door shells, and returning to the original hinge configuration may be possible.
However, trimming, drilling, tapping, wiring changes, or other application-specific modifications may require repair or replacement components to restore the original factory configuration.
Keep your factory hinges and related hardware, and discuss restoration considerations with your installer before beginning the conversion.
Choosing the Correct Silverado Door Kit
Silverado model years overlap across different truck generations, so the correct kit cannot always be determined by model year alone.
Before You Order
- Confirm your Silverado belongs to the approved T1XX generation.
- Identify whether your truck is a 1500, 2500HD, or 3500HD.
- Confirm the exact model year and cab configuration.
- For 2019 Silverado 1500 trucks, distinguish the redesigned new body from the earlier Silverado LD.
- For 2019 Silverado HD trucks, select the earlier K2XX application instead.
- Disclose aftermarket fenders, widebody components, custom bodywork, prior collision repairs, or previous hinge conversions.
- Review the current shipping and return policies before placing your order.
Truck and SUV kits are nonrefundable and non-exchangeable. Confirm the exact model year, vehicle generation, duty series, cab configuration, and application before ordering. Review the refund policy and shipping policy for applicable terms and exceptions.

Does the kit fit the Silverado Trail Boss, RST, High Country, or ZR2?
These are trims or packages offered within the Silverado lineup, but their names alone do not establish kit compatibility. Confirm the correct year, T1XX generation, duty series, and exact body configuration with VDI before purchasing.
Is VDCCHEVYSILVER19 a universal Lambo Door Kit?
No. VDCCHEVYSILVER19 is a vehicle-specific Vertical Door Conversion Kit for approved Chevrolet Silverado T1XX applications. It is not a universal hinge system.
Do I need to replace the original front doors?
No. The conversion retains your Silverado's original front door shells. The VDI hinge assemblies and gas shocks change the door opening movement.
Do Silverado Lambo doors open outward before going up?
Yes. The door opens outward to the hinge system's designed stopping point and then raises vertically with gas shock assistance. It does not lift straight up from the fully closed position.
Does bolt-on mean the installation requires no modifications?
No. Bolt-on describes the vehicle-specific hinge mounting design. Installation may still require trimming, wiring management, clearance work, and careful final alignment.
Can I install the Silverado Vertical Door Kit myself?
An experienced installer with appropriate tools, workspace, and door-alignment knowledge may complete the installation. We recommend a qualified automotive body or customization shop if you're not comfortable with the required mechanical, alignment, and wiring work.
Can Vertical Doors, Inc. install the kit on my Silverado?
Contact Vertical Doors, Inc. about factory installation at our facility in Lake Elsinore, California. We can also help you explore qualified independent installation shops.
Will aftermarket fenders or custom bodywork affect fitment?
They may. Modifications around the hinge mounting area, fender, or surrounding panels can affect door clearance and installation. Provide photographs and details of your modifications to VDI before ordering.

Vertical Doors, Inc. offers a limited lifetime hinge warranty and a six-month gas shock warranty, subject to applicable terms and conditions. Contact VDI for warranty questions or replacement-component assistance.

“Just an awesome experience today at Vertical Doors! This company takes care of their customers! Thank you for making our son's day. You all rock!”
“Vertical Doors Inc is the original name in the game when it comes to Lambo Doors. I had the pleasure of buying their kit for my 2014 C7. I highly recommend getting the install done by them as the process is quite extensive! They had me in and out in one day. No door gaps to speak of and the hinges feel smooth and strong. Don't try doing the kit at home, let the pros do it for you. They also gave me a deal on some beautiful true carbon fiber skirts made in house! Shout out to their sibling company California SuperCoupes.”
“I was having trouble with my C8 Door after a terrible attempt at install by another company (Eikon Motorsports). I called Vertical Doors and Danny was able to be a hugeeeee help. He got me in right away, told me exactly what the problem was, knowledgeable, extremely responsive, and communicated with me the whole way through. I cant say enough of the team there. I wish I would have come to them in the first place.”
Ordered my 2018 SS Camaro kit during the COVID crises. The team worked hard to get my kit to me during this critical time. I am so pleased with the new look. It took my Camaro to a new level. Great craftsmanship and best kit anywhere. - TJ from Florida
