Excellent plan and solid!! Thank-you! My joist happen to be level, but I recommend if following plan, make sure bar will end up level before mounting to the joist. I ended up spending about $78, and additional $8 on Rust Oleum truck bed coating ( Excellent idea from another post! It feels great, and I am assuming it last forever. Takes a few days to be usable.) , and $8 on a long 12" 1/4" drill bit for pre-drilling the 5/8" x 5" lag screws into the 2x4 and joist. I did not have to buy a 2x4 though. I ended up using 1" vertical pipes, and 1" to 3/4" reducing elbows for a 3/4" horizontal bar. The whole structure including the 2x4 ended up hanging down about 29.5". It hangs down a lot more than 24" due to the elbows, and I only hand-tightened the horizontal bar to the vertical bars? I have 113.5" ceilings, and so the bottom of the bar is at 7 feet. ( height is personal preferences I have seen guidelines between 6'6", 7', 7'6", and 8'. Here is my parts list, in case it helps others: • 1 horizontal Bar: 48" 3/4" piping - HERE I DEVIATED FROM THE VIDEO WHICH CALLS FOR 1" HORIZONTAL BAR - see post note below (note a 1" purchased bar will have a larger outer diameter). • 2 elbows 1"x3/4" 90 degree elbow reducing elbow ( HERE AGAIN I DEVIATED FROM THE VIDEO WHICH calls for 1" elbows) • 2 vertical bars 24” long 1" piping for the vertical supports • 8 quantity of 5" lag screws x 5/16", non-galvanized are cheapest, and fine if putting bar up inside. (10 would have been better as there are 5 joist spanning the length of the 48” horizontal bar. My joist are standard length apart (16") • Drill bits for pre-drilling holes into 2x4 and joist: 1/4” 5” or longer drill bit, and 5/16 standard length drill bit. The 1/4” is for the entire length, and the 5/16 is for the 2x4 non-threaded section of the lag bolt that goes thru the 2x4. • Rust-oleum truck bed coating. • 1" floor flange - 2 • screws for the flanges: 1/4"-20x2-1/2" machine screws zinc (3 pack) - 3 bags Post note to above: Make sure you are happy with the diameter of the horizontal bar before doing the project. I unfortunately I was not liking the 3/4” horizontal pipe. So I took the complete assembly off the installed 2x4. I am back to original design if 1” pipe. A lot more work than the initial install!
Just made ours yesterday! Thank you for sharing this, I love your diy videos! I’m excited that we now have a higher and more stable pull up bar vs our doorway bar! We did use a 2x6x8ft for more support tho . 👍🏽
First of all...awesome content as always! I feel like a 2x6 or a 2x8 might be sturdier when swinging and kipping...just thought I'd throw it out there. Thanks for all effort and great videos!
Yes - I agree a 2x6 would be better and worth the cost. I used a 2x4 because I had one hanging around ( to keep cost down ). But my setup does give a little bit, but I still feel solid on the bar at least when just doing pull ups, and kip swings. I have not tried muscle ups yet.
One question, one suggestion. Question: Do you have plans or designs for having a pullup bar coming from the ground that won't sway? Suggestion: I'm sure it will be fine but I would have put washers on the lag bolts before putting them through the wood so it will disperse the pressure over a larger area than just the head of the bolt. Just some extra security and peace of mind.
Fantastic DIY projects. This content should be added to garage gym reviews or a similar site. Would have given me some easy and sturdy projects for my gym before buying commercial. Kristi you are putting out great projects and workouts. Congrats and well done!
If you like them, we will keep at them! That way maybe you can save some money and still have a sweet home gym if you can't make it to the gym one day!
Pretty sweet! - one suggestion- add lock washers and locknuts to the carriage bolt washer and it will never come loose. Otherwise it will eventually loosen over time.
If y’all but 45 degree supports in front and behind the bar, you should be able to Kip on it securely. But currently no swinging support. A big lever essentially.
Home Depo definitely sounds better than B&Q in England!! 😅. You guys are killing it giving me and my wife so much inspiration 🤙🏼 keep it up guys. Digging the tie dye Pat 😎
My current pull-up method is putting the BB on the highest position on my squat stand! It really only feels safe for chinups lol. Looking forward to getting our full squat cage in a month to be able to work on other things!
Put one up today, your video was extremely helpful. For others, be careful with the toque you put on those lag screws. Thankfully I opted to add more screws than recommended, so one snapping off didn’t impact the durability of the entire rig
the only problem i found installing the pull up bar this way is a bit unstable horizontally overtime (not vertically). I need to install some support to keep the bar rigid horizontally. so in the end, I am not able to use the bar for muscle up practice. a bit wobbly.
This is awesome! This is exactly how I did mine except I used galvanized Black pipe. I'm glad to know I did it right! The problem is that I'm in a shed and I have triangle rafters and that possess a problem with weight swinging for pull-ups and toes to bar so I need to know how to support that?
Love the smile Kristi! I have a small ceiling in my basement. Would these parts that you laid out already be good enough or does it really depend on on the height of the ceiling? Nice job building the pullup bar in your home gym. That pullup bar looks AWESOME. Your strict pull ups & T2B look AWESOME on your homemade pullup bar. Thanks for sharing the tools we need to make our own pullup bar at home.
Good morning Pat & Kristi, I hope you guys are doing well. I was wondering if you would not mind telling me how tall your garage ceiling is? Thank you and have a great day. Stay safe and healthy.
Love the video. Has Patrick tested with kipping movements. Just wondering what you would recommend with weight on pull up bar and swinging movements. Thanks so much and stay safe!!!
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell That would be awesome! Because I too am possible to mount something to a wall not to the ceiling. Great job again Pat! Love your way of explaining! Thanx!
I see in your other video you took down the pull-up bar and put up rings? Did you all end up having problems with the pull-up bar you had installed? I can't seem to find anything but iron flanges which don't seem that strong to me.
Thank you so much for making this! I'm going to try to make this myself this week. was thinking the supports be a 12inch galvanized nipple fitting, and a 36inch galvanized pipe for the bar. Thoughts on this?
What's the lengh of the 2x6 board and the lengh and thickness of the pipes used in this video and also the lag bolts? I can use it as a pull up bar and also to hung my rings.
Wouldn't it be preferable to use something like 1" or thicker plywood that is screwed to a joist directly above and also 16" for and aft? So a a piece of wood about 34" deep X the a little bigger than the width of your bar. I would think if you're kipping that is going to exert a tremendous amount of force front to back on the bar. I'd even want to use 45 degree angle supports at each end to further reinforce it front to back.
After 2 years, how has this been holding up? My concern would be from the torque/stress from having 2' long "supports". I'm looking a doing something like this but didn't know if I'm overthinking things or if there is considerable movement in the bar when performing the exercises or attaching a suspension trainer to it.
Hey guys. How are you? I hope you and your family are doing well. I was wondering if Pat would hang rings/ropes using this same technique? Thank you for your time and have a great day.
Question. Did you have to countersink the carriage bolts so that they didn’t stop the 2x4 from sitting flat onto the ceiling? I would think the back of the carriage bolt would keep the 2x4 from laying flush no?
We did a bar muscle up on it and some to to bar and it was great! I would recommend strict pull ups and things like that but we did try it and it worked!!
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell Was in the middle of watching the box video, got sidetracked.. have to go back to it. I'm amazed at all that can fit into one sheet of plywood. I really appreciate you guys and the videos you put out. Got a good thing going there kiddo. Everybody will be open within a couple of weeks to a month. 👍
On the bolts coming the the backside in to your floor @#%#$% thing, How did you flush mount them on the back without the head sticking out and penetrating? Did you just counter sink them to the depth of the head?
Did you check if you might be attaching to an I joist? These are engineered beams and built like an I beam with mdf as the web. From what I keep seeing, any drilling into these is not allowed. Doesn't seem to matter how many attach points.
I have a few 2x4s that are ~30 in (i.e. too short to span the entire width of the pull up bar). Would this rig be as stable if I attached 2 smaller 2x4s to 2 joists each, instead of using 1 larger 2x4 to span all of the joists in my ceiling?
I didn't catch it I think what is the diameter of the Pipe you used? I was thinking of using a 1inch pipe, which is the internal diameter of the pipe since normally pull-up bars have 1 1/8 diameter.

You need a 2x6 instead of a 2x4. We did everything else you suggested, though, and it turned out great! Thanks.
Why?
@@LocalYokel01 it allows you to increase the footprint of the load, and double your lag bolts. Doing so, will make it even stronger of a setup.
I hung one today and used a few tips from your vid. I’d recommend putting what u bought in the description. Good content! Keep it coming!

Have a slight feeling that this one will blow up! What a great piece of content, you guys are amazing, keep it up!
Thank you for watching!!!
Great video. At 5:27, I would recommend using shorter carriage bolts and TWO nuts per bolt. This will ensure a much tighter connection.
I played the Kristi Eramo playlist for my Zoom CF class and they loved it!
haha nice! we do the same thing!
AWESOME!! Good playlist with some great motivational songs!
Just made ours yesterday! Thank you for sharing this, I love your diy videos! I’m excited that we now have a higher and more stable pull up bar vs our doorway bar!
We did use a 2x6x8ft for more support tho . 👍🏽
awesome!!
I also put a coat of Rust-Oleum spray paint truck bed coating (~$7) on my water pipe to add more grip. The water pipe is quite slick by itself.
I dig it!!
First of all...awesome content as always! I feel like a 2x6 or a 2x8 might be sturdier when swinging and kipping...just thought I'd throw it out there. Thanks for all effort and great videos!
if I was to do it again I prob would use a 2x6!
Thanks for watching !!

From the looks of it it's more for basic pull ups maybe not gymnastics . The vertical peaces are to short .
Very clever, very creative, and all those components are off the shelf at most pipe stockists... LG!-)
thanks!
Thanks for watching!!
Just made one for our back porch! Great idea, and thanks for all the great DIY projects! Will be trying the plyo box next!
nice! we love to hear that!
Looks like a good way - on the flip side - to make parallel / dip bars also. Love the DIY stuff!
for sure! the prices would get a little expensive but it would last for ever!
We did do a video on those too but we used PVC pipe!
One question, one suggestion.

Pat was right this was the video I was looking for! Thanks for the great video.
I was skeptical when he told me LOL like I always am and then it turned out awesome... like it always does!! HAHA
WOW! Thanks for the idea 💡. The boys have been nagging for a pull-up bar and I just couldn’t find one I would like. This nails it!
nice!!!!

I did it, thanks!
He did!! Thanks for watching!!
Excellent, just what the old man needs to catch up with his youth. I should have thought of that!
HAHA, thanks for watching!!
You can use a "T" and some more pipe to bolt the whole thing trough the wall and get super stable
for sure, that would make it really solid but the price will also jump!
What's a "t"??
So excited. Been waiting for this video. Thank you!!! How tall is your garage ceiling?
they are 9' tall!

Thank you thank you. All the content. Have you done Butterflies on that new bar?
ya, we used it for those, and even did some bar muscle ups!
Works great!!
One thing i suggest is using red loctite to prevent the pipe from loosening while you use it
Recommend lock nuts for those carriage bolts
good call!

Thanks for sharing the tools we need to make our own pullup bar at home.
ya, it will depend on your ceiling height and how far you r want it to hang down!
If your ceiling is low, I have a garage with about 8ft ceiling height. If I built this as is it would hang at about chest height...
@@patrickoconnell2380 So if I have a small ceiling then it is probably not a good idea to build a pull-up bar to hang up from my ceiling?
@@craigbuckton8557 That's what I think because that is probably the same height my ceiling is
We are fortunate to have a higher ceiling about 9ft! If we can think of another way we will bring the video for you!
Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! heading to Lowes this weekend!
Awesome!!

HA, they guys at HD know Pat very well. When we go in everyone knows his name and says hi to him lol
Great DIY! How did you secure the the vinyl banners to the wall? The Nobull banner and flag looks great!
just used some screws!

Love the video. Has Patrick tested with kipping movements. Just wondering what you would recommend with weight on pull up bar and swinging movements. Thanks so much and stay safe!!!
yes, I couldn't rip it down if I wanted to! I have done muscle ups too!
It is not going anywhere!! It is so sturdy! I was really skeptical until I got to hop up on it and then I was thoroughly impressed :)
Thanks so much Kristi and Patrick!!!
Thanks for the great Video. I love it, but my ceilings are to low for that type of pull up bar.

What's the lengh of the 2x6 board and the lengh and thickness of the pipes used in this video and also the lag bolts? I can use it as a pull up bar and also to hung my rings.
Great video guys! It has inspired me to build one myself. Question, what size bolts did you use to secure the flanges to the 2x4?
nice! I believe they were 1/4 wide and 3'' long!
Thanks for watching!
Wouldn't it be preferable to use something like 1" or thicker plywood that is screwed to a joist directly above and also 16" for and aft? So a a piece of wood about 34" deep X the a little bigger than the width of your bar. I would think if you're kipping that is going to exert a tremendous amount of force front to back on the bar. I'd even want to use 45 degree angle supports at each end to further reinforce it front to back.
SN... you are my mobility go to. Need a vid on elbow pain plz
We can get one of those for sure!
Well done! Do you reckon you can get kipping on that though? Looks like it could be a disaster if it snaps
for sure! it would be a project in itself to try to break it!
Yes we kipped on it and pat did a BMU!

Everybody will be open within a couple of weeks to a month. 👍
Hi, what's the size of both types of bolts? Not sure which size will fit through the floor flange. Thanks.
I believe they were 1/4'' for the flange and I tested them in the store, the lags were 3/8!
Hey, sorry if you answered this in the video, but are the pipes 3/4" or 1"?? Cheers
They said they used 1"
Pat, what size bolts did you use in the flange pieces? I am building my wife a rig for both muscle-ups and ring muscle-ups.
Perfect timing we are trying to install one in the basement. How much does Pat charge 😂😂😂
hahah not for hire unfortunately lol!!
Pat is the man. Love this channel
Thanks for watching!!
On the bolts coming the the backside in to your floor @#%#$% thing, How did you flush mount them on the back without the head sticking out and penetrating? Did you just counter sink them to the depth of the head?
Are you asking about the trap door rings?! Or the pull up bar?!
If they were carriage bolts they’ll sink into the wood as you tighten them.
can you send me a list of the parts. I am an older guy and need a list of the parts.
Did you check if you might be attaching to an I joist? These are engineered beams and built like an I beam with mdf as the web. From what I keep seeing, any drilling into these is not allowed. Doesn't seem to matter how many attach points.
I have a few 2x4s that are ~30 in (i.e. too short to span the entire width of the pull up bar). Would this rig be as stable if I attached 2 smaller 2x4s to 2 joists each, instead of using 1 larger 2x4 to span all of the joists in my ceiling?
Still the best intro in the game!
Awesome
I didn't catch it I think what is the diameter of the Pipe you used? I was thinking of using a 1inch pipe, which is the internal diameter of the pipe since normally pull-up bars have 1 1/8 diameter.
You’ve got a right idea, I went 1.25” diameter not know that the measurement is the inside diameter. Pipe is about 1.6” diameter on the outside.
its 1'' pipe!
Pat, can you show us how to assemble a potato gun? asking for a friend
thnks
😆
I would like one of those too :) maybe he will haha - he is good at coming up with fun ideas that WORK!
haha sounds like a reasonable project to me!
Sounds like a good project

use lock washers though
Did you counter sink the bolts?

Typical skepticism while he is working and then when he finishes I am always like oh wow this is AWESOME!
How thick should the pipe be?
1 1/2'' thick!
Need option for horizontal brace to do MUs

Thanks for watching!
