Door moulding: Can the p90x bar handle larger sizes?
1492721
There have been no responses to your post, but did you ever find an answer to this question? I have the same problem with large moulding above my doors. I purchased a Gold's Gym version of the bar and it would not fit!

Since I did not have to install the Gladiator mountin bar onto metal, I can only assume that it would not be a problem. I would immagion that you would have to use sheet metal screws, but perhaps you might want ot use some 'plywood' between the metal and the mounting panel. As to cutting it to size, again there should be no problem there.

2" standard Olympic bar. Little snug but graphite or grease took care of it for me.

Click on all the images (and the hyped up video) to the left of the main image to get a sense for how this works. According to the product review by "swyzlstyx": "you'll want to make sure your door frame is between 5.5 and 6 inches thick". Another reviewer says the total width of the long bar is just under 37", so I guess there has to be that much space on the non-door side of the frame, and the frame can't be more than 36" wide, and more than 18", as Brian notes.

I'm not exactly sure, but I can tell you that I have a different pull up bar - not a P90X one and it works great.

I have a 72 inch bar that just fits. Any smaller wouldn't. I think an 84 in would work great.

Yes; this bar was designed for standard sized plates. That was very smart of you to ask before buying. Hope you like the bar; I am very happy with it to this day.

Standard plates (the ones that fit this particular bar) don't usually come in 45 lb configurations. That size is usually associated with the Olympic (2") bar. The weight plate that does fit this bar is the 50 lb one and by own estimation, the bar should easily accommodate at least five on each side. Hope this helps...

only if the door may be drilled with the door pet dimensions and the door width

No this plate fits standard Olympic bars. Olympic bars have a diameter of 2 inches.

You can but it takes some adjustments and you should have someone strong to help. You have to unscrew one of the screws a one end and angel the bar to make I fit. I hope this helps you.

It sounds like you mean to turn one 36" door into two 18" doors. I suppose that could work. By the way, the 80 is more like 78. I had to add wood to the top of the door frame.

You're right on the borderline, but I think it's workable! I locked my buddybar in its lowest position, set it 12" out from the door, and measured where the "neck" of the door knob should be. My measurement was 32-1/4" from the floor to the neck of the doorknob.

No easy answer here but I did have to dial in quite a bit of adjustment that I was supposed to clip off. You could always try it and return it if it didn't work. I have a pretty regular specialized bar set.

Yes you have some leeway with the door width. I mounted mine on a 30" wide door but the bar easily adjusts to significantly wider door frames up to 36".

The bar is an 1 1/2" tall and slightly less than an inch thick. So may not fit if the molding to ceiling is only 1".

I'm sorry, I don't know. We returned this bar because it was too large for our space.
