ProsourceFit Heavy Duty Doorway Mount Pull Up/Chin-Up Bar, Adjustable with Foam Grips for Home Workouts

I thought I was going to struggle putting this up but it was really easy! It's very sturdy and hold up well.

I recently installed the ProsourceFit Heavy Duty Pull-Up Bar, and I’m impressed with how straightforward the process was from start to finish.This was one of the easiest fitness equipment installations I’ve done. With a standard drill, a level, and a measuring tape, I was able to get it mounted in under 20 minutes. The pre-drilled mounting holes aligned perfectly, and the included hardware was more than adequate for a secure fit. The instructions were concise but clear, with diagrams that made it easy to double-check measurements and mounting points.I’ve been using it daily for standard pull-ups, chin-ups, and leg raises. The bar doesn’t flex or creak, even during explosive movements. It feels gym-quality in a home setup.

Fit my door frame fine and is very sturdy. I added a pull up assist band that I needed. I have to put cloth between the front pads and my door frame to keep it from marking my frame. The pads could be softer to avoid marking the frame during use.

After the foam padding came off our old pullup bar system and discovering that it was cheaper to purchase a new bar as opposed to buying new padding, we purchased the ProsourceFit Multi-Grip Lite Pull Up/Chin Up Bar to replace the old bar. The ProsourceFit Multi-Grip Pull Up Bar is an excellent replacement for our old bar. Unlike our old bar which was literally just a bar that was screwed into the doorframe, this bar is a full system with multiple grips so you can perform your pull-ups while isolating different muscles. You can perform the standard overhand and underhand grips, but this bar allows for the hammer grip where your palms face each other. Because of the bar extends past the doorframe, some may also be able to perform wider stance grips. As far as installation goes, the bar can be installed without the use of any tools - simply hang over the doorframe and you're ready to go. The only "complaint" I have with this bar is that I cannot close the door of our study with it in place - but it's a very minor complaint because it's easy enough to simply lift out of the doorway when needed. Overall, this is a very well-made pull-up bar that the son and husband enjoy using daily as part of their upper body workout. It's reasonably priced, well made, and something I would purchase again.

I bought this pull-up bar several years ago around Christmas, and I’m still using it to this day. I originally got it to help build muscle in my arms, back, and especially my chest. I was looking for something similar to the Iron Gym pull-up bar I had as a teenager—but better.After a lot of searching (and watching YouTube reviews), I found this one on Amazon, and it checked every box. What makes this bar stand out is that it’s solid—one solid piece with no screws, no assembly required. You just take it out of the box and it’s ready to go. That’s exactly what I wanted.It’s incredibly sturdy and feels like it’s part of the doorframe when mounted. There’s no wobble, no slipping, and it doesn’t leave marks behind, unlike other flimsy bars I’ve tried. It’s also super easy to attach, remove, fold, and store. You can even place it on the ground for push-ups.For around $30–$35, it was an absolute steal. It’s easily a 5 out of 5 stars from me—this thing is a masterclass in pull-up bar design.

This pull-up bar is a total game changer! Super easy to install, feels incredibly secure in the doorway, and holds up to intense workouts with no slipping or wobbling. I love the multiple grip positions—it’s like having a mini gym at home. Plus, it folds up neatly when not in use, which is a huge space-saver. If you're trying to get stronger without taking up floor space, this is a solid investment.

Product AssemblyI found that assembly was simple and took about 10 minutes just by looking at the picture in the guide booklet. I noticed that the bolts and nuts do contain some oil or grease as it is a machined part so take caution when assembling on carpet or wearing `good' clothes. The kit comes with a small wrench and allen wrench for assembly. I noticed that some of the bolts felt like the allen shaft would not fit, like there was a slight size difference, if you use the provided kit, apply a little extra force when inserting the allen into the bolt. I'm not complaining, I'm glad they provide the tools with the kit so I didn't have to go find the right sizes of my own. I also noticed that it was easy for the provided wrench to become wedged between the lock washer and the frame or bolt, wiggle it enough and it will come out - or loosen the bolt to free it. Once it was assembled, it felt nice and tight like I expected.Product Use...not so muchWhile assembling, I looked the unit over to determine if there were any points in which may cause contact with the wall or may be uncomfortable when using, i.e. a protruding bolt or nut. As others have noted, the pad bar is secured by two bolts, the pad has been designed to touch the wall before the bolt head has a chance but I can see this being a problem. It would be advisable to place another pad on top of the existing or cover the bolt head with something so it doesn't touch your wall. Unfortunately or fortunately, whichever way you see it, I haven't been able to test the unit because my door frames are too thick. I live in a 1912 historic home that has all original crown molding and wood trim. The door frames and encasings have extensive wood trim, thus making it wider or thicker than a normal door from thickness. I don't think it lacks very much from fitting, the thickness of the doorframe is ~7.8" with the wood trim. It would be nice to have a product that has bolt holes for both a larger and normal size frame. The kit also comes with `optional' brackets to mount on the wall, not that I would use these EVER on my walls but I wanted to clarify their use. They would not have helped in my situation before the frame still has to be placed in the door way. The brackets are for additional support on the backside of the door frame. If your frame had small or weak molding for example, you could mount these above the molding and the bar would slide down into the brackets for a more secure fit - if you are a heavier breed then this may also be beneficial. I plan on using this in a normal size door frame before I send it back and review the construction under ACTUAL use.ACTUAL product useI am 6'5" and 185 and product use for me was fine - I didn't have any issues being taller and using this in a door frame. If you are taller and see eye level then get on your knees to use it, common sense and better exercise. I also saw that someone complained the bars were setup in a way that you can only do wide grip or normal depending on your wing span. This is true; however, you can unbolt 4 bolts and flip the bars around for close grip. Is it not a quick solution and I am surprised the manufacturer didn't go ahead and make the handles longer for a close and wide grip setup. If by reading this you think you will alternate between the two, don't count on it, after several `changes' I can see the nut, bolt and lock washer wearing out - one of the bolts started stripping after I changed it around once, which may have been because the provided tool may be slightly smaller than a normal sized allen wrench tool. In fact, there is what I call a normal grip from the U tubing that the top handle sits on - no it doesn't have an actual foam grip but use it without or wrap it with athletic tape if you decide to use this product or you can reach through the U tubing and grab a section of the `top bar' but it also does not have a grip. The other grips you see in the picture around the U tubing might be for other exercises - the ones on the floor, which I had no interest in. When I first used this is slide a little and it gave me the false sense of `This things is not going to hold me', it's an uneasy feeling putting all of your body weight on something that you have no clue if it will support you - it does. It handled my weight fine and I did not bend any bars and I jerked to somewhat test the limits. I didn't like the fact that it slid when I first used it and it slid during a couple or reps, mostly because I was doing them quickly, when I controlled myself it didn't budge. I can see where some people may do theirs quickly in an attempt to get it done but do yourself a favor and control your speed and `jerkiness' it will help you build strength and stamina.SummaryInstructions were OKAssembly and guide booklet were OKInstalling/placing unit in door frame was BAD and unusable for thicker door frames and DECENT for normal with the covering of the bolt heads to ensure no wall damage (I did not have a problem with the bolts because when I placed it in the door frame it was slightly tilted and they could not touch the wood - this again was a wider than normal door frame)Product use was OK but I didn't like the fact that in my doorway it slid a littleLACKS quality grips, close grip bar (unless you change handle position - see above), protection for bolt heads on wall or door frame (did not affect me as the unit was tilted in the door frame I tested).I have never owned any other bar but will be looking for one that works in a thicker door frame - I'll critique it once used so if you have a thicker door frame, look for another review from me in the future.Overall I'd say if you have read my review and it sounds like this unit does what you are looking for then buy it. I have really enjoyed reading Amazon product reviews and will continue to write my own (this is my first) but I am not one to say don't buy or buy a certain product based on my use, that's not for me to decide, I'll give you an honest usage example and you can decide. For me, <$35 and free shipping was great and I probably would have kept it if it fit in my desired door frame.MU
