Chair is one. Bannister if you have those. Even a kitchen counter corner is workable. If you're struggling with full bodyweight dips, try inclined dips off a chair or park bench first.

    To add onto this, 2 chairs with the seats facing each other works well for dips. Place a hand on each seat and have legs forward (or down if your chairs are tall and legs are short). Then you can adjust how much force your legs are providing.

    Two chair method is more stable than 1 chair, and you can get better range of motion.
