Lat Pulldown Dimensions & Clearance Requirements

Total floor space required

7' 3" (2.2 m) x 9' 2" (2.8 m)

The lat pulldown itself measures 3' 11" (1.2 m) x 4' 11" (1.5 m), but it cannot be used in that space alone. The figure above includes the clearance required on every side.

Clearance, side by side

front: 3' 3" (1.0 m): Working space for the user — entry, exit, and the movement itself.

left: 1' 8" (0.5 m): Side space for spotters, loading plates, and passing traffic.
right: 1' 8" (0.5 m): Side space for spotters, loading plates, and passing traffic.
