Are home pull up bars really safe?

i have one similar to the p90x version and was wondering would it be safe for someone under 200 pounds but with an old wooden frame on the door and wallls that are not concreteAre home pull up bars really safe?
I've had one for years on quite an old frame and it's fine so it should be safe, but you could always put some cushions underneath you if you're not sure.
if you must use them have someone watch you just in case but your best bet is to use a gym's or one that is secure for sure.



any doubts dont do it, not worth the risk!Are home pull up bars really safe?
Yes. We do the P90X and we have wooden door frames and the pull up bar works fine. We use it every day.
as long as it is safely secured then it should be ok, you might want to have a pad or something nearby thoAre home pull up bars really safe?
I've used one for many years in those circumstances with no problems
i try not to use them, i don't trust em.
