Can it be taken off and put back on again quickly and easily? My pull-up bar is in the kitchen doorway. Thanks.

The Pull-up Assist Band is designed to be able to be added or taken off a chin-up bar quickly and easily, literally takes a few seconds.

It is very easy. It snaps on by the hook in the right side of the picture. I can put it on and take off in less than a second with no pinching or any force.

VERY easily!! I take it with me to the gym several times a week. Hands down, this is the best fitness product I've bought in ages. I'm on my way to doing pull ups unassisted. This product is worth it's weight in gold!!

Yes..it's a simple clip that attaches and detaches from the bar. Very solid.

Yes. Its just a hook that goes over the pull-up bar. No latch or permanent connection!

Yes, it can be taken off and put back on very easily and quickly! Awesome tool, worth every penny!!

I checked with my son who owns this. He said it can be easily taken off. Must be design.

its not difficult but its not something you will want to do daily, or twice a day. you'll need to clean it off so its not heavy, get on your knees & unscrew both knobs, then lift up & retighten.

No that's not what it was designed for. It would be very difficult to take the board off, especially once you have holds on it. I have a regular pull up bar I use as well in addition to this.

Door doesn't close with the pull up bar in place. I have it on my closet door so it doesn't need to close, but you should be prepared to take the bar down to close the door.

Yes, you can! It's flexible plastic/rubber and can be pulled off. Just grab the ring and give it a good pull. It can be put back on later if you change your mind.

if the pull up bar isnt anchored in some way, door frame, wall, floor, etc, then i would not recommend it because you will be pulling and pushing at some fairly extreme angles and the pull up bar (free standing or otherwise) is meant to handle a mostly straight up and down tension. However if you mean does this have the capability to connect to one securely, then the asnwer is absolutely. Just remember if the pull up bar isnt anchored you run the risk of tipping/slipping.

The bar just flips upward so it is very easy to disengage. Less than a second to operate.

Not at all! Before putting up the Gorilla Gym my husband had a pull-up bar in the same location and it would move a little as he used it and it rubbed a small amount of paint off in that location. The Gorilla Gym doesn't seem to move at all and, so far, it hasn't seem to do any damage at all! I really like it a lot. The only problem is finding a doorway where the kids can swing as high as they want and then making sure that nobody is running near them when they are swinging. We have three small kids, but so far no injuries and no damage :)

Yes it is easily removed, it takes less time to remove than to put in place, which doesn't take long either, like five minutes.

I received one for Christmas and just got it installed. Yes, you can remove the bar between uses, it's not hard to take down if you're tall enough to reach the top of the door frame with your hands. It just slides up and out of the two side mounts. The two side pieces are screwed in to the door frame and can't be removed.

No, unfortunately the bar that goes accross the bottom makes that impossible. I don't know if the bar can be safely removed? It dosn't look like it.-Another Home Health OT

No, you do not have to take the bar off. The grommets are large and have a opening in the side of the "grommet" to slide on to the bar. It is very simple to just push the grommet opening on the bar and it snaps right in. Not sure what the other respondents meant. Perhaps they did not see the opening on the side of the large "grommets".

For me repositioning only takes a few seconds. Changing the push-up bar to a pull-up bar takes a few seconds. Changing the cables would take the longest, 20 - 30 seconds. I tend to cluster similar exercises together and appreciate changeover time:-)

Hey dan, I would buy a ceiling mounted pullup bar. This this bar is designed to be installed on the wall. I wouldn't install this bar on your ceiling because of the risk of injury.

It is on firmly but is removable for cleaning and such. Removing would not be something you would do often.

Just so you know you do have to screw (YOU SHOULD BUY YOUR OWN SCREWS. the ones in the package dulled out on me and had to get a screw extractor) and mount it. Once that's done. Yes its easy to put in and take out. I have mine screwed in the bottom for sit ups and at the top for pull ups. Its all just tightening and untightening the bar. To be honest I kind of regret buying this because of the whole mounting. There are ones that you can just hang off from your door if you wanted to do pull ups like what my friend has. That's just my opinion. Good luck.
