$35.99as of Jun 7

The ProsourceFit Multi-Grip Pull-Up Bar trades the Iron Gym's simplicity for grip variety, offering eight cushioned foam grip positions for wide, hammer, close, and neutral pulls plus hanging ab work. Its wider, longer bar is noticeably more comfortable for taller users, it fits doorways from 24 to 39 inches, and it installs without drilling for around $20. Reviewers like the stability and grip options but note it can mark or stain the door frame and a minority report durability concerns.

— Eight cushioned foam grip positions for varied pull-up angles
— Wider, longer bar is more comfortable for taller users
— Fits a wide 24-39 inch door-frame range

Ranked #3 in Best Doorway Pull-Up Bars

Pullup & Dip Doorway Pull-Up Bar

4.3

$89.9as of Jun 7

The Pullup & Dip Doorway Pull-Up Bar is the most versatile and highest-rated option here, a no-screw bar with multiple grip positions and three height settings that also flips onto the floor as a dip and push-up station. It carries a 1,000-pound static rating, ships with a resistance band, eBook, and a sling-trainer eyelet, and earns praise as a multifunctional, secure choice. The trade-offs are a higher price, a 9-pound bulk, and some wobble near the top of its capacity.

Strengths

— Multifunctional: pull-up bar plus floor dip and push-up station
— Three height positions and multiple grip options
— High 1,000 lb static rating

Watch-outs

— More expensive than basic doorway bars
— Heavier at 9 lbs and bulkier to store
— Can wobble at weights close to the rated capacity

How they stack up

ProsourceFit Multi-Grip Pull-Up Bar

The grip-variety pick with eight foam grips versus the Iron Gym Total Upper Body's three, and a wider bar that suits taller users better. Its weight rating sits below the Ally Peaks and the Pullup & Dip, and unlike the Pullup & Dip it does not double as a floor dip station.

Pullup & Dip Doorway Pull-Up Bar

The most versatile pick, the only bar here that doubles as a floor dip station and the highest-rated at a claimed 1,000 lbs, versus the 300 lbs of the Iron Gym Total Upper Body and 220-300 lbs of the ProsourceFit Multi-Grip. It costs more and is bulkier than those and the Ally Peaks.
