This thing is hilarious to put together. I can’t for the life of me make the beginning two arms even when assembling them together… Comedy skit putting this together.
What killed me was putting up stringer boards. There are no videos with step by step instructions. But after many trips to Home Depot, I got it up. It's sturdy and looking good 👍
Hey Matt, we offer a leveling kit to even out the uprights on sloped floors (which is essentially a square piece of rubber with double sided carpet tape). Basically anything you can find to wedge underneath the upright is going to even things out and compensate for the slope!
How did you get the two arms at the beginning level? Whenever I tighten the screws with the Allen wrench, it’s way off. I’ve emailed PRX and heard nothing from them. Such an expensive product for lackluster performance.

In the video there is an original measurement for the height of the bottom bracket. Then towards the end, the bottom bracket is measurement is raised. Was this just an editing mistake or was there a reason for the bottom bracket height location change?
The bottom bracket of the Murphy rack can be moved on its own to different heights as this is a fold in rack, not a fold up rack! The bottom bracket height changed due to the bench install. Hopefully that helps!
We would suggest building out behind the top wall bracket using 2x4 or a different stringer board to make it flush with the concrete footer, then you can install!
What is the clearance for the bottom wall brace? My garage foundation sits on a concrete slab that protrudes out about 3 to 5 inches around the perimeter of the area. I also am interested in putting the new bench adapter as well. Thank you
Hey Matt, the bottom wall bracket is flexible in regards to how high or how low you want to install it. You'll be just fine installing it above your concrete foundation. Both the Murphy Rack and Profile Folding Bench can be found on our website prxperformance.com. Let us know if you have any other questions!
Install a stringer board that spans across 4 studs if you have oddly spaced studs, and you'll be able to install onto that! If you have more questions, connect with us here! prxperformance.com/pages/contact-us
Wen I attached the uprights together both are not completely leveled. Two corners; opposite ends stick out by 1/16”. Have tried many times. Is this normal?!
Hey Jose, absolutely. You will need to purchase separate hardware for concrete installation though. The hardware we provide is for standard wood stud installation. You will need 1/4" tapcons or 3/8" wedge anchors for concrete to install the wall brackets!
Absolutely. You can mount the bottom bracket into the studs right above the concrete riser. We recommend 50" between the two wall brackets so that should be no problem.

@@prxperformance haha just talking smack on the spelling, I watched this video about five times, solid directions. I just got the Murph rack up about two hours ago in my garage. Switched the walls up that we were going to have it on. One question though since you asked, is it pretty normal that there is some play in the pins? I wasn’t expecting a silent rack at all and I am fine with the slight play/noise in it when I rack weight but just making sure it’s not out of the norm. Thanks again for the Explination 🤙🏻
Excellent tutorial! Super helpful!
Thank you. Glad it was helpful!
Outstanding explanation and demo video. Thank you
Thank you!
Do you have plans to design a folding bench that can be set on an incline or decline?
I only have 49 inches from wall to window. Using a bedroom. Can it be installed there?
how tall are your ceilings?

What are your recommendations if I have a slight downward slope in my garage floor where I want to install?

How close to the wall is the upright with the bench when everything is closed?
Everything will stick out about 7" when it's folded away!

Would a concrete footer cause any problems with install, as footer isn’t flush with drywall?

So what about the studs how far apart should I be does it matter can they be any far apart?

How far is the pull-up bar from the wall? Would kipping pull-ups and muscle ups be possible?
The pullup bar sits out at 22" which is a little too close for aggressive kipping movements.
Wen I attached the uprights together both are not completely leveled. Two corners; opposite ends stick out by 1/16”. Have tried many times. Is this normal?!
Please connect with us and send some photos to sales@prxperformance.com if you're having issues! Thanks
How did you get this level? Ever figure this out?
How far from the floor do i install the bottom bracket also the top bracket too?
The hinges had almost an inch of play in them up or down so you can possiblyslide up a quarter of an inch for
Clearance
How tall is the guy in this video?
Roughly 5'10"
Does it scratch the floor when its folded?
You can slightly lift each upright to prevent any scratching!
Can this be install in a apartment with concrete walls?
Hey Jose, absolutely. You will need to purchase separate hardware for concrete installation though. The hardware we provide is for standard wood stud installation. You will need 1/4" tapcons or 3/8" wedge anchors for concrete to install the wall brackets!
@@prxperformance awesome thanks!!
I have a 20 inch concrete riser in my garage. Will this be an issue when I install the wall mount?
Does the concrete riser protrude out from the wall at all or is it flush with the sheetrock?
It is off set slightly. I was hoping I could just mount the bottom plate to the sheetrock at the 20" mark
Absolutely. You can mount the bottom bracket into the studs right above the concrete riser. We recommend 50" between the two wall brackets so that should be no problem.
Thank you!!! Can't wait for it to show up!!!
Likewise!
A shim should of been included to prevent the c-brackets from folding.
My studs Are not 16 or 24 inches apart
Install a stringer board that spans across 4 studs and you'll be able to install onto that! If you have more questions, connect with us here! prxperformance.com/pages/contact-us
@@prxperformance Yes I did that it works well now did not put it in four different sides but it works thank you
That's not a plumb line, it's a chalk line. Otherwise, great info...
That is true! We didn't use it to snap any chalk on, and it worked as a "plumb line" for this situation!

Is there anything we can help with Nick?
