Can this be mounted to a finished I-Beam?

Absolutely yes. I did the same in my basement and have been using for last few weeks.

Hmmm, would only recommend that if you don't mind gouging it a bit and if it is actually structural in nature vs decorative. It's a good solid product but needs to be cranked down pretty hard and sit on the lower lip of an I-Beam to do its job.

What is a finished I-Beam? - I mounted mine to a raw ibeam. If you have encased the beam in wood or something else, the finish will get damaged, even if you try to protect it the compression stress on any finishing will mar or damage the finish. If you don't care, then I would cut through and remove the finishe so you get a more snug and secure fit to the I-beam.

Hi Michael, I own this mouting system and it is a very good product. I weigh about 240 and it is very sturdy. I mounted it to my I-Beam in the basement. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by finished I-beam? If you could explain I might be able to answer you question. Thanks

I mounted it to a finished beam and the only thing that I did differently is I put a felt pad underneath the bars to prevent them from taking the paint off

Not sure what you mean by a "finished" I-beam, but as long as the beam itself is exposed, the answer is yes. The pull up bar clamps to the lips of the I on the I beam so the bottom of the I has to be exposed for this to work. If you've covered the beam up with sheet rock or wood, then no.

Of course you can. Just make sure the mounting materials can hold the weight, and that you mount on to support beams, not drywall.

I don't see any reason why your could not. I did not mount mine that way but you should not have any problem doing that.

Nope. Sorry. No way to mount it. Plus, it's awfully thick for that....if that makes sense.

Yes. If the beams are a standard width apart and are parallel to each other then you can. However, the hardware is bolts not screws, so, if you can't access the top of the beam to drill through then you will have an issue. You could try screwing the bar to the beams, but that may be less secure at higher weights. Long answer is long, but hopefully it helps.

It is mounted in the middle already. I don't believe you can mount on the ends.

I would say yes as I have done this by rotating the U-bolt and cradle but it also depends on the frame design and diameter of the tubing.I will try to attach a picture if possible

Yes. The brackets slide from end to end, so u mount the light bar in almost any configuration.

You don't need to drill into the I beam. It simply pulls into or sandwich itself on the I beam. It's really solid.

As long as you are mounting the assembly on the face of the ceiling joist or truss it can be bolted directly to it. Only when you are going perpendicular to the joist do you need the cross piece.

As long as you have room for the mounting brackets and bars than it should work on 1/2 an I beam; just make sure it can support your weight doing pull ups.

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

I wouldn't recommend it, as there are screw holes in the cross beams on each end. You put a screw through the end pieces that secure the beams.

I would suggest getting a stand or a mounting bracket which can be installed on a beam.

I don't believe so. I had to use adhesive to mount mine. I do love it though. I don't quite understand how the brackets work.

You could do it but it is not straight forward due to mounting locations being not the exact same. If your handy enough you could do it.

Honestly, I do not know. I'd suggest you show it to the installer and get his / her opinion. I don't see why not, but I'm not a carpenter.
