VDCCHEVYSILVER0710 is the Vertical Doors, Inc. vehicle-specific Vertical Door Conversion Kit currently listed for select 2007-2014 Chevrolet Silverado applications. The system retains the original front doors and creates the traditional VDI movement: each converted door opens outward first and then raises vertically.
Important: Verify the Silverado Platform Before Ordering
The 2007-2014 year range includes different Silverado generations and is not one continuous chassis application. A model year or trim name by itself is not enough to confirm fitment.
- 2007 Silverado Classic: previous-generation GMT800 truck; do not assume fitment.
- 2007-2013 Silverado 1500: GMT900 generation.
- 2007-2014 Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD: GMT900-generation heavy-duty trucks.
- 2014 Silverado 1500: redesigned K2XX generation. VDI also lists a separate 2014-2018 Silverado Vertical Door Kit.
Before purchasing VDCCHEVYSILVER0710, contact Vertical Doors, Inc. with the model year, 1500/2500HD/3500HD designation, Classic or new-body identification when applicable, cab style, trim or package, and clear photographs of the truck. VDI will identify the correct application.

Give Your Silverado a More Dramatic Entrance
A genuine Vertical Doors, Inc. conversion changes the movement of the original front doors while retaining the factory door shells. At a show, meet, photo shoot, cruise, or everyday stop, the raised doors create a distinctive presentation.
Correct vehicle identification and professional-quality installation matter more than appearance alone.

Silverado Models, Trims, and Packages in This Year Range
The following names help identify trucks sold during the listed years. The presence of a trim, engine, drivetrain, or package name does not by itself confirm that VDCCHEVYSILVER0710 fits the vehicle.
- GMT900 Silverado 1500: Work Truck (WT), LS, LT, 1LT, 2LT, LTZ, XFE, and Silverado 1500 Hybrid, depending on model year and configuration.
- GMT900 Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD: Work Truck (WT), LT, LTZ, and early LT1 or LT2 designations, depending on model year.
- Z71: commonly identifies an off-road or appearance package/configuration on an eligible truck; it should not be treated as a universal chassis or fitment identifier.
- 2014 K2XX Silverado 1500: 1WT, 2WT, LT, LT Z71, LTZ, LTZ Z71, and High Country configurations.
Duramax, 2WD, 4WD, Regular Cab, Extended Cab, and Crew Cab describe powertrain, drivetrain, or body configuration rather than a single trim. Provide these details when requesting fitment confirmation.
Chassis / Platform and Trim Guide
- Chassis / Platform: Split application range: 2007 Classic is GMT800; 2007-2013 Silverado 1500 and 2007-2014 Silverado HD are GMT900; 2014 Silverado 1500 is K2XX
- Relevant trims, models, and packages: GMT900 1500: WT, LS, LT/1LT/2LT, LTZ, XFE, and Hybrid; HD: WT, LT/LT1/LT2, and LTZ; 2014 K2XX 1500: 1WT, 2WT, LT, LT Z71, LTZ, LTZ Z71, and High Country
Fitment note: Do not order from the year alone. Confirm Classic versus new body, 1500/2500HD/3500HD, cab style, trim or package, and the correct VDI part number.
Chassis, trim, engine, drivetrain, cab, body style, and package terminology is provided to help identify the vehicle. It does not expand the confirmed VDI application or guarantee fitment. Contact Vertical Doors, Inc. with the model year, model or duty series, body style or cab configuration, trim or package, and clear photographs when uncertain.
What Comes in the Kit

- One passenger-side Vertical Doors, Inc. hinge assembly

How the Vertical Door Conversion Works
After installation, open the door outward until it reaches the hinge system's stopping point, then raise it vertically. The gas shock assists during the upward movement. Correct adjustment is essential for alignment, latch operation, wiring clearance, and surrounding-panel clearance.
Installation Requirements
The VDI hinge system is designed around the correct vehicle's factory hinge area. Bolt-on describes the vehicle-specific mounting design; it does not mean the installation is modification-free. Installation commonly requires body-panel removal, non-visible trimming or clearance work, wiring management, and careful final alignment.
- Before loosening or removing the original hinges, use 2-inch painter’s tape to mark the door’s factory alignment. Place tape across the door and adjacent body at several reference points, including near the hinges and firewall, then draw matching alignment lines across the tape. These marks help preserve the door’s original horizontal and vertical position during installation.
- Support the door safely throughout the installation.
- Follow the supplied instructions for hinge stops, shocks, wiring, and panel clearance.
- Check the latch, weather sealing, wiring, and surrounding body panels before road use.
If you are not experienced with door alignment, drilling or tapping where applicable, body-panel removal, trimming, and wiring clearance, use a qualified automotive customization or body shop.
Before You Order
- Do not order from the year range alone.
- Confirm whether the truck is a 1500, 2500HD, or 3500HD.
- For 2007, confirm whether the truck is a Silverado Classic (GMT800) or the newer GMT900 body.
- For 2014, confirm whether the truck is a redesigned K2XX 1500 or a GMT900-generation 2500HD/3500HD.
- Provide the model year, 1500/2500HD/3500HD designation, cab style, drivetrain, trim or package, and clear photos when requesting fitment help.
- Disclose aftermarket fenders, custom bodywork, prior collision repair, or modifications near the hinge area.
- Call Vertical Doors, Inc. at 951-245-8669 before ordering when fitment is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does VDCCHEVYSILVER0710 fit every 2007-2014 Chevrolet Silverado?
Do not assume that it does. The listed years cross multiple generations, and VDI also offers a separate 2014-2018 Silverado kit. Confirm the exact platform and truck configuration with VDI before ordering.
Is a 2007 Silverado Classic the same as a 2007 GMT900 Silverado?
No. The 2007 Silverado Classic belongs to the outgoing GMT800 generation, while the redesigned 2007 Silverado uses the GMT900 architecture. The word “Classic” is an important fitment clue.
Does this kit fit a 2014 Silverado 1500?
A 2014 Silverado 1500 belongs to the redesigned K2XX generation, so it should not be grouped automatically with the 2007-2013 GMT900 1500. Review the separate 2014-2018 Silverado product and ask VDI to confirm the correct part number for the exact truck.
Does this kit fit a 2014 Silverado 2500HD or 3500HD?
The 2014 heavy-duty trucks remained part of the earlier HD generation, but platform history alone does not prove hinge-kit fitment. Ask VDI to confirm the exact application using the model year, 1500/2500HD/3500HD designation, cab style, trim or package, and clear vehicle photographs.
Does a Z71 badge confirm fitment?
No. Z71 identifies an applicable package or configuration, not a single chassis across every year. The truck's model year, duty series, platform, cab, and body configuration still need to be confirmed.
Is VDCCHEVYSILVER0710 a universal Lambo door kit?
No. It is a vehicle-specific Vertical Doors, Inc. application, not a universal weld-on hinge system.
Does the kit replace the original doors?
No. The original front doors are retained. The VDI hinge assemblies and gas shocks change how the doors move.
Can I install this kit myself?
An experienced automotive installer with the correct tools, workspace, and door-alignment knowledge may complete the installation. Use a qualified installer if you are not comfortable with panel removal, trimming, wiring clearance, and final adjustment.

“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
