How does this 'attach' to the door frame? I live in an apartment and can't leave any permanent damage like nail holes.

I live in an apt as well. It attaches using a tension type rod like many shower curtains use. Definitely no permanent damage with it.

No it doesn't leave anything. It comes with self-adheasive velcro strips. We really like ours, as do our dogs.

It fits like a shower curtain rod. Just twist is to the length you want, place between the door frame and it will stick. Should not cause any damage to door frame. The velcro strips might peel pain a bit, but you can probably get away without the velcro.

It has a tension rod that adjusts that runs across the top (works like a shower curtain rod). Their is a rod holder that you can put in (comes with) that will need to be screwed in. I haven't put it in but plan on it as the tension rod slips down due to dogs and us going in and out of it. The sides are used with 3-4 velcros on each side (so they may leave marks after you take the Velcro off, I haven't tried it yet).

Note that the Velcro tabs are pretty likely to pull off door frame paint when removed (assuming they're stuck to painted wood like ours). You might consider using some sort of less aggressive tape if your landlord will be scrutinizing every inch of the place. Or you could plan to sand and repaint those spots.

I used a few skinny little nails on the top right & left corners. They could be spackled easily

It is a super easy twist length rod (kind of like a shower curtain rod) - as you twist it it it extends and the pressure of the ends holds it up. Hope that helps!

No damage to the wall above the door, but it did leave two faint black marks on either side of the door frame. No big deal for me since the door's not in a prominent spot in the house. Never tried it with TRX bands but I don't see any reason why they would not work as long as the force applied is straight down.

It attaches with screws. They are short enough that you can use them on the inside of a cabinet door and they will not penetrate the outside of the door.

Mine just had reinforced holes for the curtain. I have had it for many months and it has stood up just fine. None of the holes have ripped, thought I don't have kids in my apartment.

I bought this for my dorm. I bought command strips for it because we are not allowed to use nails. I haven't had a problem with damage!

I used two screws into my plaster wall, but I'm pretty sure I could have used nails. As long as you don't plan on physically hanging from it, you'll be good.

It's supposed to be held in place by a velcro tab that comes with the product but it didn't stay in place. No the installation doesn't leave holes in the door. It works but definitely is not pretty. Sorry it took so long to reply back to you.

Keeps the top of the door sill from getting all scratched up. It has double sided glue tape that holds it in place.

it's attached like any other peephole, drill a hole thru door, and screw the two halves together from either side. There are "collars" one each piece to keep it from being pulled into the hole. On the outside of the door, the surface is convex, so nothing really to grab onto, but if your determined enough, I suppose you could. I would consider this reasonably tamper proof.

We placed one side on the door and the other piece on the door frame. Just line up the two arrows and do a test run while holding in place before you attach it. Easy and handy. I highly recommend.

I can't see where it would damage the door. That said, where I live right now, I am using it on a metal door. I can say there have been no indentations or anything to the door. The piece is small, but holds securely.

The part that touches the door is a soft rubber-like material. It should not damage your doors.

Dear Brad, Thank you for your interest in our pieces. The item has a slot to put a nail or screw to hang it in. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Best regards, Ina Customer Service

I don't see any screw holes on either the Motion Sensor or the Entry Sensor, and regardless, they won't do any good for a metal window frame. I had to rig the latter to ensure that it would stay in place. No tape is dependable on a cold metal window frame.

The rack comes with two mounting options. You can either mount it directly to the door using their provided hardware or you can use the included "over-the-door" hooks which slide over the top of the door and do not require any mounting hardware. That's the way I hung mine - it would be perfect for an apartment as there is no damage to the door.

It doesn't attach, it's uses leverage to hold strong on the door frame. Refer to image in link below. If link doesn't work, Google Image Search "Pull Up Bar Door Frame" The top straight black bar rests against the top of the inside of the door frame, this keeps it up. The two horizontal bars extending out the sides rests on the outside of the door frame and works to keep the unit from swinging. It's basically physics. Please note, if your doorframe is in or near a corner you'll NEED at least 4inches of space before the corner for it to hold properly. Again refer to the image below for reference. No anchors or screws into the wall. I was able to hang a 300lb person from the unit without damaging my door frame http://www.easypaleo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/DSCF34161.jpg

There's a Plexiglas panel that slides into place and is held in with a pin. This makes it VERY secure. It's not as 100% secure as a metal door would be, but pretty close IMHO.
