Can this large bar option (10 foot ceilings) be mounted on the wall & allow the longest setting, furthest away from the wall & support 300LB still?

It is a really solidly built bar. Just make sure you anchor it solidly (hit the studs). I doubt the bar itself would give way. The welds seem really solid to me, and I'm a big man.

This is what I can say....I am 190lbs, I have 12ft ceilings in my garage and this thing has been solid.....and I am not gentle....but on a vertical wall you have to realize may not be as strong as ceiling joints as far as load bearing. My suggestion is get it, mount it and see if your walls hold up....my concern would be with drywall cracks....other than that I think it would be okay....Are you 300lbs? I do kipping pullups on mine and it handles it just fine, no issues. SO take about 190 and double it for force/weight load. I think the drywall if you have it would be the only thing that might suffer....beat answer I can give you.

It's probably okay. It says it can be used as a wall or ceiling pull up bar. If it couldn't handle the weight, they would have to specify how much it could handle as a ceiling mount versus how much it could handle as a wall mount. I have mine hanging from the ceiling. It's super sturdy. Nothing will pull it down...even a force of nature.

Yes, Stud Bar has videos on their website showing large bars wall mounted for those who kip or need more leg room. For dead hang pull ups the standard size wall mounted works best and takes up less space

Hello Bridget,Yes! There is almost no place where you can not hang the 3000 Equalizer from. Bar, wall, ceiling, tree, rafter (be careful with sharp edges), trellis, you name it. This is really an extremely versatile Trainer.However, if you only want to hook it to a bar or wall/ceiling mount take a look at our Military 1in Strap Trainers. They have 1x about 3ft long anchor strap (with built-in door anchor) and is perfect for that. With best regards,WolfgangWOSS Enterprises

I don't think this bar is stable enough. It could hold the weight coming straight down from it but if you pulled too much at an angle it wouldn't stay put.

I'm an experienced builder and my answer is "No". Way too heavy and design/materials will not permit adequate fastening to wall nor will it support loading if elevated.

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.

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

You probably can using vises. There are some pre-drilled holes in one side. It is very sturdy and can stand 300lbs. SG

I use a 5' bar, and it works just fine. Gets kinda wobbly with too much weight.

Yes, it can. You can sit it in the side that you would use to hang it from the wall, and stack the hangers on top of each other. It is actually quite portable, you can grab it from the middle bar and take it anywhere.

If you include depth of the mounting piece, the bracket extends 10" from the wall.

You can yes, going off of memory you should be able to put 6 10 lb weights on each side to bring it up to 120lbs per bar.

I guess you could but I personally wouldnt. I have mine on a large support beam.

Mine is 10". I'm fairly confident that you can set the mounting screws at any distance.

NO! The screws supporting the rack have to be mounted well above the center of gravity or the excess load will be placed on the rack instead of transferring that load to the stud in your wall.

500lb is what the literature says! And they do not make a distinction by size.I think I would not push the limit but rather put in an additional bar if very heavy lifting would be required. N.Jean in Fountain Hills, AZ

If you mount it with their lag bolts, probably not. I redrilled mine to a larger bolt and of course put spacers between the ceiling joist. Was a lot of work, but now believe it will hold 250 lbs plus. sorry but better safe than sorry.
