I need to get hold of an extra wide bar for my door frame which is at least 55".

I tried googling, but can't find anything.

It's got to connect at one side of the door frame to the opposite.

Take $20 to Home Depot. Buy a pipe and some brackets for it. Wrap in athletic tape.

How much weight can these things actually take?

There is so much shitty construction over here. I can see myself destroying something.

Lol, destroying property should be the least of your worries.

I did a long set once and thought I could get one more rep with a little bit of a kip.

The bar dislodged on the way up and the rest is still a blur...
