Horse Tack Room Flooring Ideas

If you have horses or are thinking of getting horses, you may also be considering tack room ideas. Having a dedicated room for your saddles, bridles, stirrups, reins, halters, bits, and other horse and equine show equipment and accessories is a must if you want to keep your barn, stable, trailer, loafing shed, run-in shed, shipping container, or other simple shelter organized. 

When thinking of different tack room ideas, your mind may automatically go to questions about maximizing the room’s wall space to best organize the room. You may also be thinking of design ideas. Will you stick with a simple, western cowboy design, or, will you give the tack room space a complete, English-inspired, or modern makeover? 

Choosing appropriate mats or other flooring should also be among your top priorities.

Portable Horse Stall Mats for Tack Room Floors

Portable horse stall mats should be one of the first flooring solutions that come to mind when contemplating tack room flooring ideas. As a stall mat flooring system, your tack room will take on a cohesive look and feel as the rest of your barn, trailer, or shed.

These high-quality mats are made of high-density EVA foam. They are ¾ inch thick and cover 4 square feet, while only weighing 2.2 pounds each. They feature toughness and support without being heavy like rubber. 

So, if your space is small, like in a horse trailer, these may be a great option for you. This product features an interlocking mat design and has a nonslip pebble top surface texture. They are double-sided for a longer life, waterproof, and come with 2 border strips per tile. 

Envee Tacky Back LVT Plank Floors

Another tack room flooring solution that looks like wood is this tacky back LVT plank product. It is designed specifically for high-traffic areas with a slip-resistant, watertight, and dirt-tight surface. It features a patented grip layer backing, and it is fast and easy to cut and install. It is 100 percent recyclable, and this thick, vinyl, realistic wood plank flooring is environmentally friendly and easy to maintain.

Comfort Foam Tile Flooring

The Comfort Tile Plus flooring is among the best tack room ideas for flooring if you like the look of hardwood, but prefer the low maintenance benefits of foam tile. 
 
This product is non-absorbent, lightweight, waterproof, and portable. It can be installed over any flat, hard surface. It is very easy to install without adhesive, and it features a unique wood grain finish. 
 
Although it’s not the strongest product on the market, it delivers anti-fatigue cushioning and attractiveness in a tile that is easy to maintain and keep clean. The closed-cell foam base layer is also a great insulator - making it perfect for a barn or stable in cool climates. 

G-Floor Coin Tread Vinyl Flooring Roll

For a waterproof, heavy-duty flooring option, the G-Floor Coin Tread Vinyl Flooring is an excellent choice as it is originally designed for garages. This industrial-look vinyl flooring will withstand the weight of cabinets, feed bins, and saddle racks in your tack room or feed room. It is available in gray, black, or sandstone colors.

This flooring is very easy to clean with a broom, or dust mop once a week, or as needed.

Leather PVC Floor Tile

These PVC Floor Tiles feature a leather-texture for a rustic look available in a variety of earth-tone colors. These PVC tiles feature a hidden interlocking connection system for easy installation and a tiled look.

These tiles are also slip-resistant and heavy-duty, making them ideal for feed rooms and tack rooms.
