Can this large bar option (10 foot ceilings) be mounted on the wall & allow the longest setting, furthest away from the wall & support 300LB still?

It is a really solidly built bar. Just make sure you anchor it solidly (hit the studs). I doubt the bar itself would give way. The welds seem really solid to me, and I'm a big man.

This is what I can say....I am 190lbs, I have 12ft ceilings in my garage and this thing has been solid.....and I am not gentle....but on a vertical wall you have to realize may not be as strong as ceiling joints as far as load bearing. My suggestion is get it, mount it and see if your walls hold up....my concern would be with drywall cracks....other than that I think it would be okay....Are you 300lbs? I do kipping pullups on mine and it handles it just fine, no issues. SO take about 190 and double it for force/weight load. I think the drywall if you have it would be the only thing that might suffer....beat answer I can give you.

It's probably okay. It says it can be used as a wall or ceiling pull up bar. If it couldn't handle the weight, they would have to specify how much it could handle as a ceiling mount versus how much it could handle as a wall mount. I have mine hanging from the ceiling. It's super sturdy. Nothing will pull it down...even a force of nature.

Yes, Stud Bar has videos on their website showing large bars wall mounted for those who kip or need more leg room. For dead hang pull ups the standard size wall mounted works best and takes up less space

I'll get back to you tomorrow morning.. I use a 6' bar and it makes it with some room to spare so my first impression would be no. I'll give you a more precise answer tomorrow when I get home.

you definitely CANNOT use an Olympic bar. It only has a TOTAL capacity (including the user) of 300 pounds.

Good question. If you use two of them and place an optional bar in between them the bar ends up being about 11 inches away from the wall. We don't use the optional bar, my wife hangs clothes on each of the brackets individually and the width of the garment does not matter. Each storage unit ends up being about 12 inches away from the wall.

The bar is pretty much right under the joist. If you used the grips instead of the bar you might be able to depending on where its mounted. Mine is mounted in the garage ceiling joist so I have extra room above the joist. If it's mounted in the basement on a floor joist I don't thing you would be able to do it. Also, unless you're using perfect form, you may have issues as well. I think once a person got fatigued and their form starts to waiver they may start going forward too much and face plant the joist.

I believe there are a few lengths available. I think my 60" bar has 5 hooks. It's the best wall mount I could have ever imagined. Buy it!

I guess you could but I personally wouldnt. I have mine on a large support beam.

Weight Capacity- 300 lbs (also depends on the support from which it is hung on)

According to the specs no problem with 100 lbs. - just make sure when you mount it to the wall it is done properly (locate studs and screw into them). Sheetrock with wall anchors or molly anchors most likely will not do the job!!!!!!

Yes but you would have to have the bar move along a track and the unit attached to the bar. I actually built a frame that the unit attached to and then it could be rigged to move the frame

You probably can using vises. There are some pre-drilled holes in one side. It is very sturdy and can stand 300lbs. SG

I don't think this bar is stable enough. It could hold the weight coming straight down from it but if you pulled too much at an angle it wouldn't stay put.

In my experience, the bars do not hit the wall. They are stiff enough to stay in the position I leave them in. Very good quality components and hardware provided.

well i put up 405 pounds and it held up perfectly. but i do recommend that you anchor bolt the squat rack, because every time i slam the weights on the squat, it tends to move. if its against a hard sturdy wall then your good but if you have it out side, where there is no wall, then anchoring will be the best idea. i hope i answered your question.

It's a pretty compact station so I think you can put more than 40lbs on it but you would limit yourself on room to work. Make sure you secure to two or more studs though. The hanging bar is sound but only as good as the wall you secure it to.

If you mount it right to the the studs in the wall with the heavy duty bolts it comes with it should be fine. I tested mine by hanging from it and I am 190 pounds and it didn't budge.

Yes. I am bench pressing 235lbs. Rack is strong but light. It will move. I have it placed against the wall and I gently "drop" bar on rack.
