Install your hangboard in a door frame
Article updated on .
Good news for those looking for a freestanding support that fits into a door frame to avoid holes and screws: the Deltabase (delta-board.com).
The Deltabase answers 2 questions that come up from time to time among Woodrock hangboard users:
- How can I mount the hangboard without drilling holes in my wall?
- Is it possible to hang Woodrock hangboards like a pull-up bar in the door frame?
The Deltabase is a solution to these questions!
This freestanding support simply fits into your door frame without requiring any drilling or screws, allowing you to preserve your walls and avoid DIY work to mount your hangboard.
Designed to be stable and robust, the Deltabase support allows you to easily mount a climbing hangboard, whether Woodrock models or other brands on the market, in case you fancy trying a lesser-quality hangboard 😅.
This support stands out for its French manufacturing 🇫🇷👏, offering quality comparable to that of a solid wood hangboard, and is perfectly suited to the demands of intensive training at home.
Before purchasing, one prerequisite must be checked: are your door dimensions compatible with the Deltabase system?
Price of this door-frame support
In 2025, the Deltabase was available as a direct sale at a price of 249 euros. A significant budget to add to any climbing enthusiast’s piggy bank, justified by the product quality and its French manufacturing.
Advantages and disadvantages of the Deltabase
Here are some advantages of the Deltabase:
- No drilling required — Unlike other supports, the Deltabase installs without drilling or damaging your walls, a feature particularly valued in flats or houses where you want to avoid holes in existing structures.
- Universal compatibility — The Deltabase is compatible with most climbing hangboards on the market, including Woodrock ones. This gives you great flexibility depending on your equipment preferences.
- Stability and safety — The modular design of the Deltabase and its simple installation guarantee stability, even during intense training. It efficiently distributes the load, reducing pressure on the door frame while maintaining overall safety.
- French manufacturing — In addition to being practical and effective, the Deltabase is a locally manufactured product, contributing to supporting French craftsmanship while guaranteeing high quality standards.
However, if you’re comparing the Deltabase with other support options, here are some things to keep in mind:
- Door dimensions and compatibility: Before purchasing, check that your door frame dimensions are compatible with the Deltabase requirements. Doors that are too small or too wide could make installation difficult.
- Maximum supported weight: The Deltabase can support up to 100 kg, which is sufficient for the majority of users. However, if you plan to use it with heavier loads or very intensive training, it may be wise to check the specifications of alternative supports.
In summary, the Deltabase offers a practical, safe and flexible solution for climbers looking to train at home without compromising the structure of their home. Its quick installation and adaptability make it a top choice for many climbing enthusiasts.
Once the support is in place, two reads to get the most out of the equipment: the specific warm-up to do before each session to protect your pulleys, and the training programmes by level to structure 8 weeks of productive hangboard work.
