NOHrD SlimBeam

Yes, because the unit is wall-mounted and weighs over 260 lbs, we strongly recommend professional installation to ensure it is securely anchored to a load-bearing wall.

The unit itself has a very small footprint of roughly 8 by 16 inches, but you should clear a workout area of at least 4 to 5 feet in front of the machine to allow for the full range of motion required for cable exercises.

The SlimBeam comes with a fixed weight stack of 165.35 lbs, which is not expandable. It is designed primarily for controlled, high-repetition resistance training rather than heavy powerlifting.

Absolutely. The SlimBeam is crafted from high-quality, solid wood designed to withstand the rigors of daily training while maintaining its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal over time.

The weight stack features rubberized plates, which significantly dampen the sound of the weights clicking together. It is one of the quietest cable machines available, making it excellent for shared living spaces or apartments.

The wood is finished to be durable, but you should wipe it down occasionally with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove sweat. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, and consider a light wood oil treatment once or twice a year to keep the finish looking fresh.
