Worked out with an absolute anchor Editorial judgement
We could not score «space efficiency» because the manufacturer does not publish the figures needed. That axis shows as zero on the chart: it is a declared gap, not a low score.
Full technical details
Figures the manufacturer does not publish appear as «—». We would rather leave a gap than fill it with an invented number.

The analysis
Everything else in this section has to go somewhere when you are not using it. This does not: it hangs in a doorway and takes no floor at all. In a small flat that is not a detail, it is the whole argument.
It holds 200 kg of static load on a 1.5 mm steel tube, and it fixes with no screws and no drilling, which is what makes it possible in a rented flat. It comes down leaving nothing behind.
The limit is not the bar, it is your door frame. The maker is explicit: solid wood or brick only. A hollow partition, a tiled reveal or a glazed frame will fail before the steel does, and that is the warning worth reading twice.
One gap in the listing: no dimensions and no weight are published, only the range of doorways it spans. That is why space efficiency has no score here. We would rather leave it empty than invent the numbers, even though this is, in practice, the piece on the page that takes the least room of all.
In favour
- 200 kg of static load on a 1.5 mm steel tube
- No screws and no drilling: it comes down without a trace
- Fits doorways from 70 to 92 cm, which covers most UK frames
- It takes no floor at all
Against
- The maker publishes neither its dimensions nor its weight
- Solid wood or brick frames only: not hollow, tiled or glazed ones
- The frame takes the load, so the frame is the weak point, not the bar
Best for: A rented flat where nothing can be drilled and no floor can be spared.
