I had a problem to solve and this did the trick.I did not purchase this gantry for lifting product out of trucks... or anything like that.During the week I stay at my apartment, 150 miles away from my home... in order to work. During the Covid 'Reflex' I couldn't workout in the gym where I have a membership and about 50% of every exercise is using TRX straps. So I bought a TRX strap set for myself and tried to locate load bearing beams in the heated garage I rented. I was unable to be certain which joists were load bearing and which were just to hold up the drywall, so I bought this Gantry, assembled it in the garage and instead of mounting it on the wheels, I bolted it to 6x6x8' posts I purchased.

I had a problem to solve and this did the trick.I did not purchase this gantry for lifting product out of trucks... or anything like that.During the week I stay at my apartment, 150 miles away from my home... in order to work.

So I bought a TRX strap set for myself and tried to locate load bearing beams in the heated garage I rented. I was unable to be certain which joists were load bearing and which were just to hold up the drywall, so I bought this Gantry, assembled it in the garage and instead of mounting it on the wheels, I bolted it to 6x6x8' posts I purchased. I tapped a couple of shims into the metal sleeves to eliminate any play in the vertical beams of the gantry and BOOM, I had an insanely stable I beam to secure my TRX strap to. WORKS FANTASTIC. With the securing of the footings to the 6x6x8 beams, I can do extremely aggressive exercises and the gantry doesn't budge an inch.So.... you ask yourself, "Is he stupid or something?"Well, The gantry cost me $500. The two 6x6x8 beams cost me around 80.If I were to go out and buy a TRX frame designed for the exercises, it would have cost me around $1200.So, now I can exercise away... and if I ever have to pull a load out the bed of a truck for my buddies, I have just the gantry for it!!Now... I'm sure I will now receive an email saying, "Sir, your warranty is null and void." Well, that's ok. I solved a problem and now I can stay in the shape that gains me favor with my wife.
