Does anyone have this bar mounted on a regular ceiling inside the home, and not a garage? Is there any reason I should not do that?

I have mine mounted to a finished ceiling. When installing you will just need a stud finder to make sure you line up the bracket with a ceiling joist.

I use a sturdy support beam in my basement. I'm willing to bet there's ceiling mounts you can get in the event you don't have a beam strong enough

For the greatest safety I would try to mount the bar so you can install a support bolt thru the bottom 2X3 and into the I support itself. You will probably have to purchase longer mounting hardware which is recommended anyway. Hopefully the bar will line up with the joist perfect so you can drill into the I support on both ends. OR, you could install a let's say 2X6 across the I-Beams (from I-beam to I-beam) and mount the bar to that with carriage bolting. Hope that helps ;)

The base is flush against the ceiling if you install it correctly. It is pretty heavy so I ended up mounting it (using the mounting bracket it came with) directly into a stud instead of onto the work box in the ceiling but it should mount to any standard box (Mine was a round box and it mounted just fine but a bit loosely which is why I moved it directly to the stud).

The rack hangs from the ceiling and has not attachments to the side walls (the supports are attached to ceiling joists). Therefore, it CAN be mounted in the middle of the garage.

You can install these in a room with a finished ceiling. You just have to locate the studs to secure the screws to. I have some in my garage with a finished ceiling and they look good. I have some white shelves and some metallic finished ones. They are clean looking shelves, not industrial factory looking metal. Should work for you. Hope this helps.

Holes will need to be drilled right into ceiling studs and the base of the brackets bolted parallel to the studs (this works better if you have exposed studs). Then the studs come with a bolt that holds down the bar, so it is mounted last.

The ceiling mount that they are shipped with has them very close together (if not staggered they would touch each other. If you are handy I am sure you could rewire and mount on a 6 ft bar since they are provided with a healthy amount of cord for situations where they are meant to hang a long distance from the ceiling. Hope this helps!

I wanted to accomplish the very same thing when installing the bar. However, the way that doors are framed, the bar would be off-center. The pull up bar would be more or less perpendicular with the door jamb. I thought it would be awkward, so I went ahead and installed it on my garage wall. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was far enough away from the wall for my liking. You could also turn facing away from the mounting hardware to accommodate leg swing. Otherwise, the construction of this product is very solid and I am very happy with my purchase.

No you need a mounting bracket. It has a bracket on the light with a single bolt that will mount to the separate bracket you get for your bars.

We had ours mounted, but you can have it on the floor or table. Mounted covered more of an area.I liked it this disco light, because it was simple to put up.I hope this helps.

Hi Jeff, Unfortunately this grab bar is not mounted in my house. The manufacturer is Briggs Health Care Corp. Maybe by contacting them they could answer your question.

I also have a pull up bar on my door frame. I find it easy to place the dip attachment on the pull bar frame, no problem at all at my home. The only challenge is that when you don't want the dip attachment connected, it is rather large and it takes up space when trying to store it in your bedroom or non gym room.

I haven't had any ceiling height issues at all -- not even a close issue whatsoever. Mine is stored in the garage, which is the standard 2-car garage attached to the house. I'm thoroughly enjoying this tool organizer. Hope this info helps you.

I have 4 in my ceiling joist. Each X-mount has it's own joist and no problems. I run a few classes from my home and the ceiling is fine. Remember, it's only a percentage of your bodyweight on the straps. Make sure you use LAG BOLTS and pre-drill the holes first so you don't split the joists driving the bolts in my husband said. Hope this helped.

current chain is pretty short. the mounting point is on the bar, the chain is just to secure it. I just use it on the floor, haven't mount on the wall/ceiling yet.

I mounted mine on a concrete wall so I bought different mounting hardware. I don't rmemember it being a big deal. The pull-up bar is strong and well made and a great value for the money.
