It depends on the space you have and where you plan to install it. Those pull-up bars that install in doorways generally work well. Some fitness websites, such as those associated with CrossFit, contain plans for good ways to install pull-up bars as well. Make sure it fits your requirements.

You should read the instructions for each individual pull-up bar as they may be built differently. The best place is usually in a very sturdy door frame. Most often the bar can be widened once it is in a door frame to stick inside the door way. Make sure it is secure before using it.

The best and sturdiest type of pull up bars are those that sit inside a bracket on either side of a door jam. The brackets are mounted with screw into the sides of the wall. The ideal location of this is a stairwell with and enclosed ceiling, typically found in most basement stairwells.

The best way to install the pull up bar is determined by the type of pull up bar you have. The over the door kind is best installed on a secure door frame. The kind you attach to the wall must be secured to the wall where studs are present.

To install a pull-up bar, the number one concern you should have is on how to anchor it into the doorframe. Be sure to drill holes and anchor it.
