Can this hang from a metal bar so I can slide it along the bar attached to garage support beam, to re-position it ?

It's possible, but would require the previously described solution or replacement of the existing bar mounts with custom mounts.

We mounted ours on a 1.25 square metal bar and had a local machine shop, cut the steel and pre-drill the holes to secure the metal bar to a 2 X 6 we mounted to the ceiling joists. I allowed enough space between my holes to slide my hoist about 18 inches and it works great. I use my hoist to lift my 50# wine carboys and slide them over onto my elevated bench to allow me to siphon off the wine into another carboy. I had shoulder surgery and l restricted to 25# weight on my left side. Thus, the hoist allows me to continue to do winemaking, just have taken the lifting out of it.Joe Atkins We mounted ours on a 1.25 square metal bar and had a local machine shop, cut the steel and pre-drill the holes to secure the metal bar to a 2 X 6 we mounted to the ceiling joists.

Yes but you would have to have the bar move along a track and the unit attached to the bar. I actually built a frame that the unit attached to and then it could be rigged to move the frame

Yes, I have this attached to my pullup bar (one that is not screwed or bolted to the doorframe, but that hangs on the doorframe) and have had no issues with it. Just make sure that the direction you are exerting your force is in the direction that will push the supports into the doorframe instead of rotating the pullup bar away...if that makes sense.

No. You would need to build a mounting system that would allow reversing the mounting position.

I think you could make it work for that, but not "off the shelf". You would have to attach a bracket of some sort to the inside of the sliding part of the door, near the outside edge. It's difficult to explain, but if you look at the product photo, you can see that the end of the bar butts up to the door frame. You would need something on the door for the bar to butt up to. Maybe a piece of aluminum "L". I think a clever handyman could make this work.

I am sure it could. It spans from joist to joist then can be placed at any final angle needed. The bar spins to tighten the stretcher then the box goes on last.

you can...i did the same thing with mine and it works fine. you cant tell by the pictures, both ends of the bar have hole in them so you can bolt the bar to the brackets to keep the bar from spinning. I only bolted one end of my bar and it works perfect.

The bar/handle itself will, yes. But where you mount it will be important, because the support on the beam will be the weakest link. Also the age and health of the beams will matter. Good luck!

Not without some modification. The ends of the bar itself would need to be trimmed down, or new holes drilled through it to line up the holes in the mounting brackets.

It would probably work, depending on wide the bar is you are hanging it on, a thin bar would be ok, you may have to take that piece of plastic off that is on the hangar part, I did..

The clip on top is designed for door frames and it will be too short if you find a way to attach it to a ceiling beam. So I don't think so.

Yeah, mine is hanging from a pullup bar. It comes with little straps you can hang around the bar and attach the carabiner.

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

Sure. Depending on how high the bar is, is it one of those door hanging ones or fixed. You might have to wrap straps a couple of times, depending on the height you want.

you would need an L bracket to do it the one it comes with hangs over my rail.

No, you need the leverage from the top it the trim. I moved into a place without Tim around the door and the bar did not work. I would guess if you had to place it on instead of above the trim, a similar result would occur.

The bar is pretty much right under the joist. If you used the grips instead of the bar you might be able to depending on where its mounted. Mine is mounted in the garage ceiling joist so I have extra room above the joist. If it's mounted in the basement on a floor joist I don't thing you would be able to do it. Also, unless you're using perfect form, you may have issues as well. I think once a person got fatigued and their form starts to waiver they may start going forward too much and face plant the joist.

No it has to be mounted with screws. I think it would take pretty strong magnets to do that as the bar w/ utensils are heavy.
