Pull Up Bars without Door Frames
It all depends on how much $$ you are willing to part with. If you have an open budget, we would recommend a ceiling mounted or free standing bar. If you are short on budget, we would recommend you take a look at the wall mounted version, or suspension trainers with a wall hook.

No Door Frame Alternative 2- Hallway Pull Up Bar
This is our favourite solution.
If you have a hallways that’s not wider than 50 inches, you can actually use an extensible doorway pull-up bar. Instead of locking in the door frame, you can set it to lock into the hallway walls.
Please note that you’ll need an extra long doorway pull up bar. According to our experience, the ones listed below are the best performing hallway pull up bars:
(length: 50 inches)
(length: 52 inches)
No Door Frame Alternative 3- Power Station
Finally, if you have the budget and space, we recommend going for a power station.
