contents Despite being remarkable predictive, the Standard Model leaves unanswered several important issues, which motivate an ongoing search for its extensions. One fashionable possibility are the so-called 331 models, where the electroweak gauge group is extended to $SU_L(3)\times U(1)$. We focus on a minimal extension which includes vector-like quarks (VLQs) and new gauge bosons, performing a consistent analysis of the production at LHC of a pair of doubly-charged bileptons. We include for the first time all the relevant processes where VLQs contribute, and in particular the associate production VLQ-bilepton. Finally, we extract the bound on the bilepton mass, $m_Y>$ 1300 GeV, from a reinterpretation of a recent ATLAS search for doubly-charged Higgs bosons in multi-lepton final states.
