Question 1

Will I be able to take down the pull up bar when it’s not in use?

Accepted Answer

You can, but it’s really meant to stay put wherever you decide to put it. For the most secure mounting, First you drill the ancho cups into the wall. Then you “unscrew” the ends of the bars to lengthen it till it’s tight against the cups and use a small retaining screw to keep the bar from being able to shorten and fall out.

Question 2

Can this be mounted onto drywall?

Accepted Answer

Without a wood stud behind the drywall, I fear the screws would work their way loose over time. The bar is held in place by 1) Two cups which are screwed into your door frame, and 2) by pressure of un-threading the rods of the chinning bar until their snug in the cups and pushing out against the door frame. Even with drywall anchors, the repeated stress of use will work the anchors loose over time. I don't think it would be safe in drywall.

Question 3

Can I hang a pulley cable system from the punching bag hook? Can it support same weight if weight is all on it's center?

Accepted Answer

Firstly, I should point out that the pull-up bar is not designed for this purpose.  It is designed for doing pull ups.
So while the bar will hold the weight and your idea seems OK, it's unknown how the pull up bar or the doormounts will actually handle the stress of repeated use of a punching bag attached to it.

Question 4

I have 2 walls, 42" apart. For extra security I'm drilling holes in studs behind walls to insert each end. At 225lbs, hanging upside down safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it should be safe.  The bar will easily fit a 42" space and hold 225lbs.  Of course, the bar is designed for pull-ups and not specifically for hanging upside down.  But as long as you have it secured very well to the walls (it sounds like you will) and you tighten the Allen Wrench locking screws, then it should be fine.  You do need to check it  BEFORE EVERY USE to ensure that it is tightly and securely in place.
