Apparatus and Method for Temporary Mounting of a Hangboard

A removable assembly for providing temporary mounting of a hangboard in a walkthrough opening, such as a doorway formed along a wall having first and second opposing sides, the wall including a supportive strip positioned above the opening along the first side of the wall, the removable assembly comprising:

• a first unit;
• and
• at least a first bracket for connecting the hangboard to the first unit, wherein the first unit includes:
• a first member configured to be placed over the strip and along the first side of the wall when mounting the hangboard;
• a second member configured for attachment to the first member in a deployed configuration wherein the second member can be positioned across the opening and against the second side of the wall while the first member is positioned over the strip;
• and
• a third member configured for attachment to the second member in the deployed configuration such that when the first member is placed over the strip and the second member is positioned against the second side of the wall, at least a portion of the third member is positioned above the second member;
• at least a pair of fourth members, each configured to connect the first, second and third members to one another to effect the deployed configuration so that, when the first member is positioned over the strip and the second member is positioned against the second side of the wall, a load is transferable from the third member through the fourth members to the wall;
• and
• wherein the first bracket comprises a first attachment portion configured to support the hangboard and a second attachment portion configured for releasable coupling to the third member for support of the first bracket so that when
• (i) the first unit is positioned with the first member over the strip and the second member against the second side of the wall,
• (ii) and the hangboard is attached to the bracket via the first attachment portion,
• (iii) and the bracket is coupled to the third member via the second attachment portion:
• the hangboard is supported by the first unit with the second attachment portion of the bracket supported by the third member.
