The open sides of a stock Can-Am Defender HD10 let in mud, brush and the cold, and they leave nothing to rest an arm on during a long day of fence checks or trail rides. These HDPE half doors close in the lower cab with a material that shrugs off dents, so they hold up to brush, gate posts and the general abuse a work machine sees.
Highlights
- 5/8" thick HDPE, rated 38% stronger than aluminum
- Heavy-duty Southco rotary latches with strong corrosion resistance
- Rubber bulb seal for a snug, rattle-free close
- Textured finish that hides scuffs and wear
- Comfortable armrest height
Why HDPE Instead of Aluminum
Aluminum doors look sharp but dent and crease when they meet a stump or a post. HDPE flexes and returns to shape, and at 5/8" thick these panels are rated 38% stronger than aluminum. They also cost less than aluminum doors, which makes them a smart pick for a machine that works for a living. The textured surface hides scratches, so the doors keep their rugged look long after the first season.
Latches and Seal That Last
Southco rotary latches are a common choice on heavy equipment because they close positively and resist corrosion from water, mud and fertilizer dust. A rubber bulb seal around the opening keeps the doors snug against the frame so they don't buzz or rattle on washboard roads.
Comfort on Long Days
The doors are sized at a practical height for resting your arm while you drive, which you'll notice on an all-day ride or a slow job like spraying weeds. They also help keep mud and roost off your legs and boots.
