Stainless Steel Hanger Bolt Set for Wood Mounting

Is the mounting material included in the scope of delivery for pull-up bars?

Yes and no. The mounting hardware is offered as an optional addition.

How tight should the hanger bolts be secured?

The hanger bolts should be tightened firmly, but not excessively. This means they should not be driven in using sheer brute force until further rotation is impossible. Tighten them with careful consideration. As soon as it is noticeable that they have securely gripped the material and are fully seated, they are sufficiently tightened. It is important to note that hanger bolts sometimes bite into masonry very quickly; therefore, proceeding with a steady and controlled motion right from the start is highly recommended.

Is there an optimal mounting height for a pull-up bar?

Yes, ideally, the pull-up bar should be mounted 30% higher than the user's total body height. At this height, the feet will clear the ground when hanging freely. For example, if a person is 1.8 m tall, the pull-up bar should ideally hang 2.34 m above the floor. In general, the following formula applies: Ideal mounting height = Body height * 1.3.  If the ceiling height of the room does not permit this, the legs must simply be slightly bent during execution.
