Stop Tripping Over Saddles. Put Your Wall to Work.
The Easy-Up® Wall Mount Saddle Rack With Pad Bar stores your saddle and dries your pad in the same small footprint. Four screws into a flat wall and it's done. (Screws not included — pick fasteners to match your wall.)
Your Saddle Deserves Better Than the Barn Floor
It is 5:30 in the morning, and you are carrying your horse’s bridle and grooming tote down a dim barn aisle. A saddle is leaning against the wall, its flap brushing the shavings, while yesterday’s damp pad is folded over a nearby stall door. You step around both because turnout comes first, but the clutter is still waiting when you return.
Every rider knows how quickly temporary tack storage becomes the normal routine. A saddle rests on a hay bale for one night, then stays there all week. A shared stand fills up, so the next saddle goes on a trunk or the floor. Pads are layered wherever there is room, even when they still need time to air out after a warm schooling ride. Before long, finding an open surface takes almost as much thought as untacking your horse.
The inconvenience adds up in small, persistent ways. You move equipment before sweeping, search for the pad that belongs with a particular saddle, and remind other riders to keep the aisle open. Saddles stored near dust, shavings, and damp pads need more attention, while crowded storage makes it harder to keep each rider’s equipment together. On busy lesson evenings or show mornings, the same limited space must handle even more tack at once.
The real problem is not a lack of effort. Most barns simply ask too much of floor space, stall doors, and improvised stands. Your saddle and pad both need a dedicated place, but adding another freestanding rack only occupies more room. Without storage that uses the wall, the same equipment keeps returning to the same crowded surfaces.
A Pad That Never Fully Dries Never Gets Fully Clean
The problem is not you or your horse. It is the collection of temporary fixes that never gives both the saddle and pad a proper home. A floor stand may support a saddle, but it still claims valuable tack-room space. A wall hook may hold a pad, but it does nothing for the saddle sitting below it.
Improvised storage often separates equipment that you use together. The saddle goes on a shared rack, while the pad is draped over a stall door, rail, or trunk. When the pad is folded or covered by other gear, less of its surface is exposed to moving air. You may return for the next ride and find that the underside is still damp, sending you to search for another pad while your horse waits in the cross-ties.
Adding more single-purpose hardware can create a different kind of clutter. One bracket holds the saddle, another bar holds the pad, and a third hook catches whatever is left. In a compact tack room, every separate fixture requires its own patch of wall and installation point. Freestanding alternatives consume floor space, while portable racks can become one more item that must be moved before sweeping or reorganizing.
That is how a simple storage issue becomes part of every ride. You untack, look for an open spot, rearrange someone else’s equipment, and promise yourself you will organize everything later. Yet a solution that handles only the saddle or only the pad leaves half the routine unchanged. Until both pieces have one designated station, the clutter keeps shifting instead of disappearing.
One Rack. Saddle Up. Pad Down. Aisle Clear.
Where the saddle rests, the steel is vinyl coated — so the panels and skirts sit on a protective surface instead of bare metal.
The rack measures 24 inches long, 8 inches high, and 13¼ inches wide, and the mounting plate is 4 inches wide by 7½ inches long. It goes onto any flat surface with four screws. Screws are not included, which is deliberate: barn walls vary, and you'll want fasteners matched to what you're mounting into.
Once it's up, the routine gets shorter. The saddle has a place, the pad has a place, and both are the same place — a system anyone else in a shared tack room can follow without being told. The rack is backed by the industry-leading Easy-Up® 5 year warranty against breakage. Trusted since 1948, Schneiders builds barn equipment around the routines horse owners handle every day.
Vinyl-Coated Steel
Vinyl over tubular steel means your saddle rests on a protective surface instead of bare metal, protecting the panels and skirts from scratching.
Integrated Pad Bar Included
The built-in pad bar lets your saddle pad air out and dry directly beneath the saddle, so pad and saddle live in one place instead of two.
What Riders Are Saying
"We bought six of these to fill a wall in our tack room and love them. Its nice have the separate bar to store saddle pads without having to keep them directly on top of the saddles. One of the six oddly did not have the holes drilled in it to mount it though. We had the right tools to drill through the metal to do it ourselves, but it was a quality control issue that was definitely overlooked."
"I bought four of these for my new tack room. They are so sturdy and the perfect size for my saddles and saddle pads."
"I have 9 hanging in my tack room & they are sturdy, easily handling english or Western saddles & a pad. Easy to install, look sharp."
