bought this back in January after someone suggested suspending my dog from a doorway chin up bar in a grooming hammock to clip her nails (she fights and screams and normally needs to be sedated). this worked perfectly for the dog (in case anyone else has an anxious dog to groom). the dog is 35 pounds - bar was perfectly sturdy, secure, and super duper easy to install. i am not at all handy, nor am i very smart - after a brief period of panic over not being able to figure out how to extend the bar, i decided to check out the instructions and after that, it took literally 2 minutes. the grippy things on the ends grab the door frame harder when there is weight on it. it says it can handle up to 440 pounds - so in theory, you could suspend a great dane from this thing. not sure if there was any damage to the paint in the door frame, didn’t care either - that house was a death trap, when i had the chance to make my escape, i took nothing with me, so i am about to buy another one for the same purpose at my new place 1200 miles away. maybe i’ll start doing some flex arm hangs from it too, what the heck. put this thing to work.

I bought this pull-up bar because I’m gym-shy and wanted to explore new exercises in the comfort of my home. It turned out to be a fantastic purchase! Not only did it help me feel more confident trying different movements, but I also doubled the number of pull-ups I could do since getting it. The bar is sturdy, easy to install, and doesn’t damage the door frame or wall. I also love how simple it is to adjust its position. For the price, it’s an excellent investment for anyone looking to build strength at home. Read more
Good product. Excellent if you cannot and do not want to drill holes in wall. Did some explosives and regular pull-ups and holds up well. And I can close door on top of that. Also u can disassemble and move it to a different part of your house or possibly travel with it. Read more
Brought it for my daughter who loves jumping and hanging which is recommended by my sister who is using it for her daughters. They loved it. Sometimes my husband also hangs on it. Very sturdy Read more
Super strong. It's been mounted in the same doorway since I bought this in the winter of 2024 and it hasn't moved a bit. Works awesome as it should! Read more

The plastic pieces that come in contact with the frame come right out. There is nothing, not even glue, holding these in. This was properly installed and held up to light use for a couple of weeks. I only use it to hang for some shoulder therapy. Easing my weight on it to hang still caused it to fall and I ended up on the ground. Also, with most door frames you will have to crank this thing past the point of hearing the frame and molding crack for it to be anywhere near tight enough to consider it "installed". Read more
I bought this for the sole purpose of using a hanging harness to do my dogs nails. It works perfect, easy to install and very solid. I like that the pads are large so they don't put a dent in my wood door frame.... though I did rubber band some of that non-slip padding to them to make extra sure. If you are looking to use this for your dogs, just FYI: My dogs are heavy and very hard to lift, so I also bought a hydraulic lift cart to help me raise them up to bar level. This setup is a game changer. Read more
