What is Lambo-Doors, Advantages and Disadvantages, how to install

The external tuning of the vehicle will be particularly bright, if you build a lambo-doors, otherwise called door-wings. The installation process is so simple that you can spend it yourself. If the doors of the car open up, it always looks unusual, and your Iron horse thus will attract attention to yourself. About this further in the article.

What is a lamb-door, which are and what is different

"Lambo" are car doors, which, at the expense of a special design, based only on one hinge, open up, and not a sideways. Such a mechanism was first developed by the Italian designer Marchello Gandini.

 

In general, modern doors-wings are divided into three main variations: opening at an angle of 130 degrees, hybrids of shear doors with standard doors and VLS doors. The lack of the first type is a limited space for planting to the vehicle. In the second type, all the positive qualities of the doors in the style of "Lambo" and the standard door are connected. And the third type of doors is distinguished by the fact that they first shift a bit of the sides, but only after that up.

Myths about "guillotine" doors

  • All dirt falls inside the car, and hence the clothes of passengers.
  • There are difficulties with visiting and output.

Fortunately, these are only myths. In practice, such cases does not arise, so if you decide to install the lambo-doors on your car, you should not worry about it.

Advantages and disadvantages of Lambo-Doors

All the same, the main advantage of the Lambo-doors is their aesthetic and unusual appearance. In addition, when driving, they can be open, and also make it possible to get out of the car if it is parked in a narrow place. And due to the fact that the hinges in such a design are located as well as the ordinary doors, install the lambo-doors are very simple.

As for the shortcomings of the Lambo-Doors, then they can be attributed to the need for optimal parking space (it is necessary that the doors do not hurt the ceiling), a decrease in the boarding opening, as well as difficulties that may appear when tipping the vehicle to the roof.

How much are the lambo-doors

The approximate cost of the factory production product ranges from 14-24 thousand rubles. However, you can make the doors-wings yourself, for what to attract turner and milling machine, which will cost about 3-5 thousand rubles.

Lambo-loop which choose

First of all, it should be noted that the lambo-loop can or buy in the finished form (they are sold to kits), or make it with their own hands. The first world brand offering completed engineering development to install the door opening up is German "LSD". The specialists of this company create a Lambo-loop that are suitable for the parameters of a particular car model (it turns out that the installation works do not require special effort and time). It is worth noting that the quality of Lambo-loops from the company "LSD" is simply excellent, but the cost of such a set begins from 50 thousand rubles, depending on the brand of the car.

The products of the American company "GT-Factory" should be allocated, as well as its derivatives (for example, the company "GLIDE"), producing a lambo-loop that require welding work during installation. The advantage of such products is their versatility, which makes it possible to use the details in fact on any car. The cost of this set starts from 20 thousand rubles.

It is also necessary to recall another type of lambo-loops that are installed using special fastening bolts. This is VX Lambo Style, which are fixed in regular fasteners of the door and can be replaced by conventional details at any time. Immediately after installation, the door can not be closed very well, but if you perform the adjustment of native loops, this problem will disappear by itself.

Another disadvantage of these elements is the relatively low life of gas shock absorbers - only half a year. Therefore, it is desirable to immediately buy two sets so that when the breakdown can be replaced with them. True, given the cost of this kit (from 15 thousand rubles), it is easier to acquire an option to be more expensive and not to think about replacing such a small time interval.

Installation of Lambo Door

In the process of installing a lamp-door, the following important points must be taken into account:

  1. It is necessary that the doors that are in the closed position fall into the opening. You can not allow the design of the design, otherwise it will lead to a rapid failure of the mechanism.
  2. Do not forget to pay attention to clear design adjustment.
  3. To enhance the rigidity of the frame, it is necessary to enhance the car body using additional metal parts using welding work.

Installation Instructions:

  • We dismantle the wing of the car.
  • We disassemble the usual door opening system and remove it. To configure a new mechanism, it is necessary to construct from various means a light door pattern. Installation of Lambo-Doors is made using bolts or welding operations are used.
  • When the template is ready, keep it on the necessary parameters, making certain accuracy in places in which loops will be located. Then they must be consolidated and prepared for the installation of Lambo-Doors.
  • It is important to know that the new system requires the installation of high-power gas shock absorbers, since the average load on the system is 40 kilograms. Do not use shock absorbers in extreme positions, otherwise their service life will decrease.
