BELPER booked their place in the Midlands Junior Vase fourth round after moving up a gear in the second half at Aldridge.
The first half was more of an arm wrestle than a rugby game, with Aldridge very strong at the scrum and competing well at the break down.
Belper flexed their arm with strong runs from Dave Bacon, Sam Hallam-Gray and Craig Innocent but could not kick on and break the home defence.
The closest anyone came to scoring was after a trademark run from veteran Gareth Dakin.
But he was rightly adjudged to be held up over the line and the first half remained scoreless.
The second half saw Belper come out and play more open rugby.
Belper's scrums were now solid and it was from the base of this that Mitch Wilmott powered over for the first score with the second half eight minutes old.
And Belper stretched the lead after a powerful run from Bacon who beat his defenders to score.
Five minutes later Belper scored again from a piece of excellent support play.
Dakin broke the line running an excellent angle but was too far out to go all the way.
Wilmott was found in space and Rory Peverell supported well. After passing to Hallam-Gray he was available for the next offload and went over in the corner.
In the last 10 minutes, Jack Smith scored the last of the tries following a good move by the backs.
Tom Stones kicked two of the four conversions and Belper held on to secure a win and a clean sheet.
They travel to Rolls Royce on Saturday for a Mildands Four East (North) game (2.15pm kick-off).
