Would this work with a heavy-duty eye bolt screwed into a (basement) ceiling joist?

yes but make sure the eye bolt and the joist are properly braced and anchored.

Yes, I currently use the WOSS Trainer with an eye bolt screwed into my garage ceiling joist. It works great.

The strap is attached to a D ring and includes a carabiner, so I believe you can attach the carabiner clip to the eye bolt. It should work for you!

Absolutely will work, ours is attached to a large screw eye in our ceiling joist. I found we were happier when the screw eye was close to a basement wall. With it close to the wall you can put your feet against the wall for some exercises.
772254
It will work. So long as it is secure and a karabiner can be attached to it.

Should work fine if the ceiling joist is designed to handle the weight. (I've known some joists were decorative only.).

Just get an eye bolt from the hardware store and screw that into one of the ceiling joists or if hanging in a doorway you put it in the top plate of the door frame.

Yes. As long as you snug-up the adjusting nut sufficiently (which spreads the device between the floor and ceiling), it will be fine. This is true of installing on a hard floor, too (probably even more important).

I went to Home Depot and bought some hooks with a snap opening. They are weight rated and just picked one about 5 times heavier that a small child. I think about 200 or 250 lb weight limit. My eyelets were bolts on a steel beam, but know you can buy eyelets with a wood screw. 5/16 to 3/8 is probably more than adequate. Pre drill the hole the size of the outside Diameter of the screw or may just a bit less.

You really don't want this thing coming down. 10 is a good number and won't weaken a 2x6 (or greater) ceiling joist. I threw out the lag bolts that they supplied and replaced them with 3 inch long 1/4" diameter lags. What they supply is useless for a garage with a finished ceiling. You have 5/8" sheetrock, then 3/4" firring strips(not good for holding this lift up at all). Considering that the 2 inch lags they supply have a head plus the bracket thickness, that leaves you with less than 5/8" of penetration into the stud. That is stupid dangerous in my opinion. I have 2 of these lifts installed, one is heavily loaded and has been up there for a month now. You really really really want to read the installation instructions from various customers before buying (I did). I also posted what I did.

no wayon the pair of chains ques. You definately should and would want a chain per eye bolt. !) to keep the rack level and 2) less wear n tear on ceiling. the weight should be disperssed evenly or your hole into ceiling will have to much weight if you only use 2 holes instead of four. It has been great for me I love it! lots of compliments ;) you definately want it to be secure. I have a couple of Cast Iron pans hanging also, so better safe than sorry, right! Good Luck

Hello Jerry,This Anchor pad comes with 4x 1/4in Lag Bolts. This Anchor pad is meant to go into the side of a beam, or if you go straight up into a ceiling beam the beam should be at the least 3in wide.If you want to install an Anchor Pad into a regular ceiling joist (1.5in wide is typical) go with the WOSS Stainless Steel Oblong Eye Pad. This one is perfect for joists. If your joist is behind sheet rock you will need a stud finder to hit the center of the joist.With best regards,WolfgangWOSS Enterprises

I doubt it would work as-is. You would probably need to mount a cheap bracket on the ceiling to keep it from sliding. I'm sure it can be done quickly and very cheap.

Shouldnt be a problem. The 4 vertical bars are predrilled every two inches for inserting bolts to the ceiling anchors.

The bracket has "teeth" at the ends at anchor into wood or wood like materials. If the joist is made of metal it would not work. Not sure if that helps, but I am not sure the exact materials used for your joist.

I use mine on a 1 inch galvanized pipe mounted to the floor joists above my basement. It's a tight fit, but works fine.

yes, but you have to have a good amount of space and the ability to screw in heavy duty lags into a ceiling. generally not going to be a great idea, but it can be done.

I used a 6" hole saw to drill a hole throught the end joist. My unit is installed in an unfinished basement. I used concrete anchors to bolt it to the cinder block foundation. I'm guessing here, but if your basement is finished, you may have a drop ceiling or ceiling to go through to access the end joists.

It can be mounted to a ceiling but due to weight, it should be bolted to a wood beam.

Yes, we installed ours in a drywall ceiling. My husband said if you don't screw it into a joist then you should use an anchor type screw to hold it securely.
751808
Yes if you anchor it correctly. The supplied screws will not be long enough to screw into the ceiling joist but if you purchase longer ones you should be fine. I feel with the weight of the rack and the glasses, plastic anchors will not be strong enough in drywall.

Yes, it will work with vaulted ceilings and will hinge as much as 90 degrees.
