Two questions decide this purchase: how much of the cab you need closed off, and how hard the doors have to work. A machine that runs food plots in October and sits in the shed in January is a different buy than one that plows every storm and hauls feed at 10 degrees. The filters on this page use the same vocabulary the aftermarket does, so here is what each build actually is, who it suits, and what it costs on this page today.

A door tells you what it is worth every time it closes. Start at the seal. A perimeter bulb seal running the whole door opening is what keeps rain and dust outside, and a bare frame edge is what does not. Spike builds its Full-Size kit on a two-piece tubular aluminum frame with that bulb seal, finishes the interior instead of leaving the frame exposed, and adds an integrated aluminum mirror bracket plus a stow-away pouch for the window when it is down.
Latches and hinges are where cheap kits fail. DragonFire runs a two-stage slam-shut locking latch with Jeep-style captured lock-down hinges and Delrin-sleeved striker pins, which is the difference between a door that rattles on washboard and one that does not. Thumper Fab goes solid steel top to bottom with rubber trim on every edge and dual latching handles, manufactured under one roof in Texas. And hinge wear is the reason old doors sag and bind, which is why a machined pin and barrel hinge from AJK Offroad costs $32.99 and saves a $900 door.
One thing our fitment team catches every week: buyers order a full-door kit without checking whether their Ranger has the Pro-Fit cage. Spike's kit requires it, and no amount of hardware makes up for a cab that cannot accept the mount. If you are running factory rock sliders, mention that too, since some door kits do not clear them.
The budget-friendly entry point is soft doors. A Falcon Ridge set for the 570 and 800 with a zippered rear window runs $400.99, and a Seizmik zippered set runs $509.19. Honest read: fabric and vinyl block wind, brush and most weather, but there is no hard latch and no impact protection, so most buyers treat them as shoulder-season doors.
The sweet spot is where most Full-Size owners land, and it is the widest part of this catalog. DragonFire's steel doors for the 2018 and newer XP 1000 are $894.95, Seizmik's framed 570 kit is $1,137.14, and Spike's aluminum full-door kit is $1,139.95. Fifty-one of the 64 listings on this page sit above $450, and complete-door buyers mostly settle between $900 and $1,250. That band gets you a real latch, a real seal and a frame that will outlast the machine.
The premium end is polycarbonate. SuperATV's scratch-resistant convertible hard cab doors run $2,098.95 to $2,621.95, and a full cab-enclosure door set reaches $4,073.95. What earns that price is glass-like clarity you can slide open, the tightest seal available and a cab quiet enough to hold a conversation at speed.
The most common warranty is between 3–6 months, but Everything Polaris Ranger 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. Financing is available through Affirm at checkout on the higher-ticket kits. If you want to hear it from owners rather than from us, see what Ranger owners say about us.
Doors are one piece of a sealed cab. Pair them with a Full-Size Ranger windshield and a hard roof, and a cab heater turns that sealed Ranger into a warm place to work.
Q: Half doors or full doors, which should I actually buy? It comes down to what you are keeping out. Half and lower doors stop mud, brush, branches and the wind below your waist, which covers trail riding, fields and food plots. Full doors add the upper half, so rain, snow and real cold stay outside, and that matters if you plow, haul a crew or hunt in nasty weather. Plenty of XP 1000 owners run half doors from spring through fall and switch to full doors with a windshield and roof for winter. If you only want to buy once, buy full doors.
Q: Will these fit my year and trim? Most Full-Size kits cover a range of years inside one body style. XP 1000 doors typically fit 2018 and newer because Polaris kept that cab consistent, and the DragonFire kit here is specific to the three-seat XP 1000 and Ranger 1000, not the Crew. The 570, XP 900 and older 1000 need kits listed for them. Two fitment gates catch people: Spike's full-door kit requires the factory Pro-Fit cage, and Crew and XD 1500 models hinge differently, so neither takes a standard Full-Size door. Check the listing's fitment chart, or call us and we will confirm it before you order rather than after.
Q: How long does an install take, and what tools do I need? Plan on one to two hours per door for full doors and less for half doors. A socket set and an Allen wrench cover it, and a second person to hold the door while you line up hinges makes alignment far easier. Getting the latch to close without binding is the fiddly part and usually takes a couple of adjustments. No welding, no cutting and no drilling into the frame on the kits here. If you have installed a winch or a bumper, you can do doors.
Q: Will full doors cook the cab in summer? They can, especially sitting still or working at low speed with a windshield and roof on. Two ways around it. Run a kit with sliding or zippered window inserts so you can vent airflow, or pull the doors for the season. Spike's lift-off hinges come apart without tools, which is the whole reason that kit works as a year-round setup, and the window stows in an interior pouch instead of on the floor.
Q: Are aftermarket Ranger doors as good as the factory doors? Polaris builds one good option. The aftermarket gives you that quality level from a dozen makers, usually for less money, in materials the factory does not offer. Spike's two-piece aluminum frame is specifically built not to flex at speed the way stock doors do, and Thumper Fab's are solid American steel. You also get choices the factory never sells, like a quarter-inch polycarbonate convertible cab door or a $32.99 replacement hinge, and nearly all of it installs in a driveway with hand tools.
