The Tack Room Island : Central Hub


The Dream Tack Room Island:

Where Function Meets Equestrian Elegance

By Matt Golden · Tack Room Cabinetry


A Central Hub for Every Equestrian Space


For the true equestrian, the tack room is far more than a utility space — it’s the heart of the barn. It’s where preparation meets precision, where equipment is cared for, and where every detail reflects pride of ownership.


At the center of this environment stands one defining piece of tack room furniture  : the tack room island.


Part workstation, part showpiece, a thoughtfully designed island serves as your barn’s command center — a space that merges storage, cleaning, and craftsmanship into one beautiful, highly functional hub.

At Tack Room Cabinetry, we specialize in creating custom-built tack room cabinets and islands that elevate both the function and aesthetic of your equestrian space. Whether your barn reflects a modern architectural tone or timeless traditional craftsmanship, our furniture is built to complement your design and enhance your daily routine.


Designing the Ultimate Tack Room Island


Crafting a dream island is about more than cabinetry — it’s about balance. Every tack room cabinet we design blends form and function, durability and beauty, to meet the practical demands of barn life while showcasing refined design.


1. Integrated Sink: The Heart of Your Cleaning Station

A sink turns your island into a full-service cleaning and care station. No more carrying tack across the barn — everything you need is right where you work.


Key design considerations:

  • Durable materials: Stainless steel or high-density polyethylene sinks stand up to cleaning agents and heavy use.
  • Smart faucet design: Pull-down or high-arc faucets make rinsing bridles and bits effortless, while a hose attachment offers extra reach.
  • Effective drainage: Built-in traps and filters prevent clogs and keep your plumbing clean, maintaining barn hygiene and efficiency.


2. Intelligent Storage: A Place for Everything


Great tack room furniture focuses on custom organization. Cabinetry should create order and ease, ensuring every item has a home.

  • Shallow drawers: Lined for bits, spurs, and grooming tools.
  • Deep cabinets: Perfect for blankets, pads, and protective boots.
  • Pull-out racks and dryers: Convenient drying zones near your cleaning station.
  • Hooks and hangers: Keep halters, bridles, and leads tidy and accessible.
  • Modular flexibility: As your collection evolves, our modular tack room cabinets adapt and expand with you.

3. Countertops & Finishes: Built for the Barn

Every surface we design must meet the realities of barn life — dust, moisture, and constant use — while maintaining its beauty and craftsmanship.

  • Countertops: Choose from high-pressure laminate, stainless steel, or solid surface materials for moisture and impact resistance.
  • Cabinet finishes: Our coatings resist humidity, pests, and daily wear, keeping your furniture beautiful for years.
  • Hardware: Heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant hinges and drawer slides ensure smooth, reliable performance.


From Vision to Reality


Each island begins with your vision.


We study your barn layout, workflow, and personal style, then create a custom tack room furniture piece that reflects both your passion and your precision.


Some clients prefer sleek, stainless-steel finishes with exposed casters for a modern, industrial aesthetic. Others choose traditional wood tones, concealed wheels, and hand-finished trim that echo the heritage of classic barns. Whatever your preference, our mission is the same: to create a centerpiece that transforms your tack room into a space of beauty, purpose, and pride.
