Will my doorframe support my pull up bar?

Title says it all basically. Got gifted a pull up bar and mounted it to my doorframe, but I was wondering if doorframes are actually designed to hold this kind of weight. Me and the bar combined are likely less than 180 lbs combined, so would it be safe for me to use the pull up bar? I don't want to damage the frame or my walls. Thanks in advance!! submitted by /u/Mother_Maintenance32 [link] [comments]
