MATERIALS LIST:

1 - Expanding Doorway Support Bar
2 - Brackets
6 - # 12 x 1-1/2" Screws
1 - 3/16" Drill Bit
2 - Safety Snaps

INSTALLATION:

Note: The doorway system is designed to be hung in a doorway that is between 28-3/4" and 36" in width. It is
NOT designed to work with doorways larger than 36" wide, or smaller than 28-3/4".
To install your brackets you will need a drill, a 3/16" drill bit (furnished), and a phillips head screwdriver.
•
Position the bracket on the door frame against the door stop molding, on the
opposite side of the molding from the door (see figure 1). Put the side of the
bracket with the three small holes against the door frame.
•
Using the 3/16" drill bit provided, drill a pilot hole into the door frame using the
small hole as a guide. Put a screw through the bracket into the pilot hole and
tighten securely. This will hold the bracket in place while you drill the two re-
maining holes and install the screws. Make sure all screws are tight, but be
careful not to over tighten enough to strip the screw threads.
•
Install the other bracket on the opposite side of the door frame in the same
manner.
•
Adjust the bar to the approximate width of your door by holding one end of
the bar and turning the other end of the bar either in or out. Put one end of
the bar into one of the holes in the bracket. Holding one end of the bar, turn
the opposite end to expand the bar until it will go into the matching hole of the
other bracket. Note: The height of your equipment and the height of the child
should be taken into consideration when deciding which set of holes in the bracket to use. Expand the bar until it is
tight between the door frames. The bar must be tight between the brackets but it may be possible to crack the
door frame by over tightening.
•
Center the bar cover over the threaded part of the bar and locate a web loop in each of the grooves at each end of
the bar. Hang the appropriate equipment from the safety snaps.
•
The strength of all doorways may not be equal. Start your activities gently and increase the activity while checking
for any change or movement of the doorway frame or brackets.
•
Do not hang anything from the center of the bar or try to use it for a chin up bar. It is designed to support weight
from the end loops only.
