Settle three details before you compare materials: model year, seat count and, on a first-generation 2-seat, your rear window. The vented upper kit is written for 2021 and newer Commanders. The Dirt Specialties half doors and the ShockPros convertible kit are cut for the original 2-seat body.
| Type | Material and specs | Best for | What you give up |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half doors | .090-inch wall steel with aluminum skins, dual-stage slam latch, 3-point adjustable mount (Dirt Specialties) | 2011-2020 2-seat Commanders with constant in-and-out and riders who want a full-door armrest | Nothing covers you above the beltline, so wind and rain still reach your shoulders |
| Suicide full doors for the MAX | 1-inch steel tubing, aluminum skins, dual-stage slam latch, 3-point mount (Dirt Specialties) | 4-seat MAX crews who need easy entry to the back row | The highest-priced steel door here at $1,189.95 |
| Aluminum hard doors | Aluminum tube frame, multi-bend aluminum skin, black powder coat, preassembled (SuperATV) | Owners who want a hard door with the latch placed to clear their knees | Two mounting points where the Dirt Specialties kits use three |
| Convertible full and half doors | 1-inch tubular frame, CNC-cut welded 18-gauge plate, tinted 20-gauge vinyl uppers (ShockPros) | First-generation 2-seat owners who want full doors in winter and half doors in summer from one kit | Premium price and no full automotive perimeter seals |
| Soft side enclosures | 600-denier polyester, clear flexible acrylic doors and window, double-pull zippers (Greene Mountain) | A modular setup paired with a hard top, windshield and rear windjammer | Needs those other pieces to seal the cab |
| Soft roll-away doors | 11-ounce marine-grade polyester canvas, 30-mil tinted vinyl windows with a -20°F cold crack rating (Falcon Ridge) | Seasonal doors that roll up and ride along when the weather turns | Fabric and zippers instead of a rigid panel |
| Vented upper doors | ¼-inch hard-coated polycarbonate, sliding vent, perimeter automotive bulb seal (Sport Concept Manufacturing) | 2021 and newer Commanders that need dust and wind blocked with adjustable airflow | The inner triangular piece will not fit with OEM Can-Am mirrors |
Hardware decides how (and how long) a door lives with you. Dirt Specialties pairs a dual-stage slam latch with a 3-point adjustable mount, so you can square the door to the cage instead of living with a gap. SuperATV builds its frame from 1-1/4-inch aluminum tube and sets the latch where it clears your knees on rough ground. Hinge direction matters too: Dirt Specialties doors are suicide style for easy entry, while ShockPros doors swing forward like a car door on a double steel pin hinge with a replaceable slam latch. The Sport Concept upper kit carries a perimeter automotive bulb seal, and ShockPros says plainly its doors lack full perimeter seals, so add weather stripping to seal out dust.
From the shop: on a first-generation 2-seat, look at your rear window before ordering a convertible kit. A hard plastic rear window mounts at the far back roll bars and leaves a gap that needs the optional quarter windows. A soft rear window mounts right behind the seats and leaves no gap, so quarter windows would sit in the box unused.
The entry point is fabric. Greene Mountain’s side enclosure runs $299.00 to $349.50 by color, and Dirt Specialties steel half doors sit just above at $399.95. The sweet spot, where most Commander owners land, runs from $463.07 for Falcon Ridge canvas soft doors through $598.45 to $636.45 for the vented polycarbonate uppers to $720.95 for SuperATV aluminum doors: a sealed cab or a hard door with most of the quality built in. The premium end is steel built for years of work, with Dirt Specialties MAX suicide full doors at $1,189.95 and the ShockPros convertible kit at $1,339.95. Affirm financing at checkout can spread the cost at that level.
SuperATV backs its doors with a 3-month warranty against manufacturing defects. The most common warranty is between 3-6 months, but Everything Can-Am Offroad does offer extended 1- and 2-year warranties on all products if that is something you are interested in — you can add the extended warranty right at checkout. If a winter build is the goal, pair full doors with one of our Can-Am Commander heaters, since a heater only holds warmth in a cab that is closed at the sides. Before you order, read what Commander owners say about Everything Can-Am Offroad.
Once your doors are on, send pictures of your Commander to customerservice@everythingcanamoffroad.com and we’ll feature them on our Facebook page.
No. Can-Am completely redesigned the Commander for 2021, and first-generation doors do not bolt to the new body. Match the generation named on the listing. If a listing leaves you guessing, text (920) 644-5280 with your year and trim. Our customer service team averages more than five years with us and handles fitment before the sale and support after it.
Here, the Dirt Specialties suicide full doors are the kit built for 4-seat MAX models. The Dirt Specialties half doors are 2-seat only, and ShockPros says its convertible kit does not cover the MAX. The MAX listing states no year range, so text us your year before you order.
The Sport Concept upper kit is compatible with most full windshields and ships with all hardware and instructions. The conflict is the factory mirror: the kit’s inner triangular piece will not fit with OEM Can-Am mirrors, so text us if you run factory mirrors today.
Falcon Ridge soft doors pair 11-ounce marine-grade canvas with 30-mil tinted vinyl windows rated to a -20°F cold crack, and they roll away when you don’t need them. Greene Mountain’s enclosure installs with self-adhesive Velcro and stays on through trailering at up to 75 MPH. Neither is a rigid door, so they block weather rather than branches.
