Buy a 1 x 2 piece of wood from a hardware store and screw it into the bottom edge of the door opening. I would talk to someone at the hardware store and verify with them what size screws are needed to hold ? pounds (whatever the max amount that the jumper will hold) make sure you are screwing into the beam on the door opening. DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK AS IT IS A WORK AROUND.

In my case, no. The gap between my closet door and the molding is too small. The hooks strike the molding and prevent the door from closing. If I want to shut the door, I will need to shave a little from the top of the door.

If your doorway (not the frame, the doorway itself) is more than 36 inches wide, then the rubber ends of the long arm that rests against the frame and it won't work. If the doorway (again, not the frame) is less than 18 inches wide, then the curved bars won't have room to fit through the doorway, and it won't work. If the width of the top of your doorframe (that is, the small strip up there) is less than maybe half an inch deep, then the top bar likely won't be able to get a purchase on the lip, and it won't work. All that being said, I've just described almost every door frame I've ever seen. Note that now I'm saying frame, if you have a doorway with no frame, then there will be nothing for this to hang off of. But if you just get it and try it, you'll probably find that it works fine. Probably.

I just measured mine, and they open 1 3/4" max. It should just work, although if its a really strong clamp, you might have trouble squeezing it open.

The clamp I bought is at my summer home so I can't measure it. One could rig a spacer, possibly triangular, shaped, to take the clamp out away from your material. I work with odd materials like barn siding, cactus skeleton, Antlers etc. amt the device has been very useful.

Remove the clamps underneath and push the plastic block upwards. It's a little snug.

The practical answer is 4 1/2" material is too large. If the material was 4", then it would be less "impossible". The hang-up would be: clamping the material to the box to hold it steady and supporting the length of the material. This box is just not designed to do this job. Having said that, I love a challenge: you might find a way to hold the material steady using clamps and setting up a temporary jig. I'm not suggesting this, but I would probably try since I own the box already. The best answer I can give you is this: this tool was never designed to do the kind of job you are contemplating. I suggest you go another route.

There are two options: getting a stand(I will suggest the Okoa stand) or get a over the door clamp by amazonas. Never screw a bassinet into the ceiling, bc it will fall out. The amazonas clamp goes over the door frame and is kept in place by the molding above the door. It has a safety strap that keeps the clamp closed.http://www.amazonas.eu/en/accessories-baby-world/door-clamp.html

I would get slightly larger door then the opening! Over lapping 2 inches on each side ! Don't know the manufacture

I just measure the opening on the "over the door" hanger and it looks like it will no go over the width of about 1 and 5/8.

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!

I use the clips bent them over my door lip scew holes lines things up and used the provided screws. You might not need the plastic ring. Its really too hard to answer in a message as you would need to see what the other person is doing

We used crazy glue and a clamp. Have been in place with no problem for a year or so. Good luck.

It depends how wide your door is, and what size rod you bought. If it's a double door, then you'll want to add a bracket in the middle, as it'll tend to sag. These adjustable rods are made of two tubes, one of which fits inside the other, and is pushed in or pulled out to make the width you want. So there isn't the strength and rigidity you'd need to span a double door without its sagging in the middle.

If it is shallow equipment you could probably rig something up. The door opening is plenty wide at ~20" You've only got ~16" total depth to work with inside.

I've uploaded a photo of the clamp. It shows the size of the clamp and measures the opening. The clamping space is UP TO 1and 1/2 inches wide. If the thickness if the item falls within this measurement then you should be able to clamp it.. Just be sure to also account for the width of the bottom spacer

You are not allowed to make a hole or you don't have the right tools? I used a small cordless drill to make small starter holes for the supplied screws to go into on the steel door I installed this on. Otherwise the only thing you could do is use some really strong glue and clamps. Something like epoxy or E6000.
