Is there a stop mechanism that prevents the bar from being pulled out of the holder? Thanks.

Mine is installed and it does indeed have a stop mechanism. The rod does not pull out. It holds clothes very well and I am very pleased.

Yes, the bar has a stop that prevents it from being pulled all the way out, as well as provide support for hanging clothes, etc. when fully extended.

Yes. It only pulls out so far and stops. I think the length is in the description. I have had these for 10 years with no problem. This is the second pair for more flexibility.

Hi Helena, I guess theres no trick...too much of muscle power.. I had this problem, i somehow forced it into the base and it is stuck forever now i guess the two side bars went inside the middle one is out...but its locked

There is no release mechanism on the unit as far as I can tell. I just kinda wiggle it back and forth and pull until it slides off. Unless I'm missing something. : )

No. The bar simply keeps the operable door panel from sliding open (keeps door from sliding down the track).

I bought a separate no sit haunch holderIt has a pinch opener on the holder that you pinch open to slats on the underside top of the arm if that makes sense. That is the best I can discribe it. I am happy with the purchase.

The bar is riveted to it's mounting bracket. I supose you can grind off the rivet if you want to just use the bar.

Same problem...............you can try to lower the plastic a little on the glass...........Either way.......even if it works.....it is not a SECURE stop......

There is no locking mechanism. It just hangs from two ell brackets that are welded to the rack.

there are four bars on the ends that hold it up. It comes off from time to time, but overall sturdy enough and does the job. It is smaller than we thought as well. The pictures look deceiving.

The bar itself has a locking mechanism but the bike mounts do not. Although, you can order locking bike mounts separately that should work with this rack.

Hi Al,I don't have anything to add to the great answers already provided. Some have really specific instructions step by step, and what to do if you decide to take it down or move to another location. This is what I remember doing, and though it's short on instructions, you can see the directional arrows for clockwise and counter-clockwise to lock it in place right on the chrome suction part of the bar. Good luck!

There is a lock bar stabilizer at the mid-point of the bar to prevent you from bending the bar out too much.

No. There is no true locking position, however there is a point in which the legs will cease to pull out.

No. There is a metal bar brace that can be installed between the handles which prevents it from folding inwards.

It appears to be held in place with a metal retaining clip. I don't see any way to remove it completely, but cutting it off with hacksaw would work. There is a bit of sliding friction, I'm not sure if this would be a problem or not for you.

Use the safety brackets that come with the bar. I didn't at first, and after some fast pullups, where I was slowly twisting the wrong direction with each pull, it slipped out.
