The setup has worked great for what I need. I have to bend my knees when doing pull-ups, but that’s no biggie. The only real problem I have is that I drilled the holes a little high and my knuckles hit the top frame, so I have to do pull-ups just using my fingers and not a full grip. I plan on drilling the holes a little lower soon to alleviate the problem, but it’s no rush. The only real problem with someone using this setup is that if they were over six feet tall or had a shorter doorway, their knee’s might hit the floor.
I have been using it for months now, and while it is not a permanent solution, it is very sturdy and allows me to do most exercises (Except Muscle ups, which I doubt I could do anyway).

**Try at your own risk.

 

See You in the Hills.
