However, for people who opt for permanent door way bars, the situation becomes a little more complex. Since permanent pull up door bars are installed using mounting brackets that are drilled in place, this makes it harder to undo the drilling work and even after you’re done the drills can leave permanent holes in your walls which honestly, no one wants.

  • Wall Mounted Bars:
