First thing that comes to mind when you hear Gull Wing Doors is usually Back to the Future. However, but in the last 25 years, a lot has changed with the design and use of these hinges. In fact, Gull Wing Doors are the fastest growing segment of aftermarket door hinge kits, because they rarely take up any more room that regular doors, and are easy to get in and out of on the go.
Gull Wing, are also called Butterfly Doors or ZLR Doors but they all allow you to open your doors straight up along the roof line or angles with the windshield of your car. The way you chose to install your Gull Wing Hinges depends on your vehicles design and your personal preference.
We account for these factors and more by designing a Gull Wing Kit door hinge for your vehicle that has No flex and can be installed on the roof line, making your doors go straight up, or on the front of the door, making the door open at the angle of the windshield B pillar. These hinges can also be installed on the rear doors with the same options. Regardless of how you decide your door should open, the end result is a unique looking rock solid door system that is easy to get in and out of, and sets your vehicle apart from just about anything on the road.
When it comes to installing gullwing door hinges its actually a lot easier than you might think. They use a combination bolt on and weld on installation technique and, because they are designed to install with the factory door hinges left in place, it’s easy to insure that every installation results in perfect door alignment. Our gullwing door hinges are very reasonably priced, and are available in both styles for over 1000 applications. We also have the ability to machine them to suit just about any 2 or 4 door vehicles front or rear doors opening at different angles.

We often get asked about parking next to other cars with Gull Wing doors. In fact, they are easier to get in and out than regular doors for because the door gets out of your way, and often requires less room to open than a regular doors. This is even more the case on vehicle with two doors, as demonstrated in this short video:
