The molding on my doors is too tall also. Stupid 100 year old house was built by nooblords. Anyways your best bet is to get one of [these] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001CZ4ZN0/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1372855587&sr=8-1&pi=SL75).

You screw these cups into the wall and the bar twists into the cups and is held in place by tension and/or magic. Works great for me. Make sure you're under the weight limit tho, falling on your ass is a great way to break something. Broken tailbones are bad news bears. And you'll have to bring a pillow with you everywhere and everyone will be all like "why you got a pillow?" and you'll say "broke my tailbone when my pull-up bar broke" and they'll be all "lol nooblord". Never be a nooblord. Also, the bar will tend to twist while you're using it, so to avoid it losing tension or cracking your doorframe you should put a mark on the bar and reset the mark after each set. Again, avoid a broken tailbone and pillow based public embarassent.

That's my two copper anyways.

You can try a pull up bar like this. It telescopes into the sides of the door frame and doesn't require the use of the top nor drilling into the frame. Some sort of wall mounted bar may be better off if you can afford it and drill into wall. There's also freestanding power towers

I got this bar on Amazon.

It's fairly cheap and at least for me, it doesnt require any bolts to be put in to stable it in the doorway. I just got it and have used it a few times (I suck at pullups), and it's held my weight (170) no problem just by twisting it into the door frame. It does come with some brackets to mount if you aren't comfortable with tightening it manually.

One thing I like about it, since I don't have any normal sized doorways downstairs, I couldn't get a normal pullup bar. This one fits larger door frames and areas (extends to 40 inches).

I use something similar : http://www.amazon.com/JFit-Deluxe-Doorway-Pull-Up-Bar/dp/B001CZ4ZN0/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1420568595&sr=1-1&keywords=pressure+pull+up+bar

very easy to set up

How are your experiences with using this type of pull up bar: https://www.amazon.com/Deluxe-Exercise-Doorway-Pull-Up-Comfort/dp/B001CZ4ZN0?ref_=Oct_TopRatedC_3408471_3&pf_rd_p=9718b628-a881-5d1b-be86-f8398ba18022&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-6&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=3408471&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=NADP8C5B7HE3K05WWRJ3&pf_rd_r=NADP8C5B7HE3K05WWRJ3&pf_rd_p=9718b628-a881-5d1b-be86-f8398ba18022 ?

I would prefer the type that doesn't require mounting with screws but unfortunately there is nowhere I could use one of those in my apartment.

I have this pull up bar at home and I don't attach it to a door way, you don't need to use any screws either. You just have to twist it extremely tight until its real snug. The customer image on amazon is a great example on how you install it without a door frame.

I guess it really depends on what your needs are. I only wanted to do some stuff I can't do at the gym, so I got one of these.

Cons

  • It's basically just a straight bar, so no angled grips and stuff.
  • The fact that the bar is actually in the doorframe can mess with your ROM.

    Pros

  • You can put it up in seconds, literally, and take it off when you're done with it.

  • You can change its height in seconds too. I can't do real pull-ups so I do negatives, and I set the height of the bar a little over my head so I don't have to get a chair and jump off it. I also use the bar for hanging leg raises, incline push ups, bench dips (in this case, bar dips), inverted rows... anything that needs something stable to hang on to.
