The HOPE HORSE Tack Room Front Panel is a front-facing assembly designed for the entrances of functional rooms within a stable. It features a central pair of hinged, glazed doors flanked by solid panels, making it an ideal solution for tack rooms, equipment storage areas, and utility/tool rooms.
This front panel design is typically used for tack rooms, storage areas for daily stable equipment, or dedicated spaces for cleaning tools. By combining it with our side panels, you can create a complete, enclosed stable unit.
These front panels are generally positioned to face the stable aisle, though they can also be placed in any other convenient location.
Before and after riding, staff will frequently enter and exit to retrieve or store saddles, bridles, and saddle pads, or to move equipment using a cart.
HOPE HORSE places the door in the center of the front panel, creating a clear path from the entrance into the interior. The space on either side can be fitted with saddle racks, hooks, or storage cabinets, depending on your specific layout requirements.
The upper section of the central door features two windows, allowing a view from the aisle into the area directly beyond the entrance. The lower part of the door and the side sections consist of solid, vertical, dark-brown panels, which help conceal the storage areas on either side from direct view. A silver metal frame outlines both the central door and the side panels.
If your tack room, tool room, and equipment storage are located along the same aisle, you can use consistent front panel designs to create a visually unified look across all these functional spaces.
We offer various surface finishes—such as hot-dip galvanizing or powder coating—along with a selection of infill materials, including bamboo, plastic, or pine boards in different colors.
You can choose the combination that best complements your overall design aesthetic.
Robust Metal Frame with a Central Pane Window
A metal outer frame and crossbars support the central door panel and the bamboo-paneled sections on either side.
The heavy-duty 50×50×2mm metal frame is designed to withstand the frequent opening and closing typical of a tack room.
A two-pane window in the upper section of the door maintains visibility, allowing staff in the corridor to see into the area directly facing the entrance.
Mortise-and-Tenon Bamboo Paneling for Superior Impact Resistance
Adjacent bamboo panels are joined using a mortise-and-tenon system and secured within the metal frame.
This interlocking design ensures the panels reinforce one another, minimizing the relative displacement of individual boards upon impact.
The solid bamboo panels—located on the lower portion of the door and along the sides—are built to endure kicks from horses, as well as the bumps and knocks that occur when moving carts or equipment; they also serve to screen the tack storage areas on either side.
Heavy-Duty Hinges for Frequent Use
Heavy-duty hinges support the door leaf, transferring the forces generated during operation to the door frame.
For a tack room that sees constant traffic—whether for saddling up, returning tack, or cleaning—HOPE HORSE has selected this configuration to ensure the long-term durability of the door.
Tack Room
Features a dedicated entrance for the centralized storage of saddles, bridles, saddle pads, and other riding equipment.
Equipment Storage Room
Designated for the storage of day-to-day stable equipment. When planning the doorway, ensure it is sized to accommodate the largest pieces of equipment.
Tools and Supplies Room
A separate space for stable cleaning tools and everyday supplies, designed for easy access from the passageway.
This front panel is an ideal choice when a tack room faces the main stable aisle—providing convenient access for personnel and equipment while keeping storage areas on either side neatly concealed.
Central access with integrated storage
The central door section of this HOPE HORSE front panel creates a clear, defined entry point.
When planning your tack room layout, establish a primary walkway from the entrance, then utilize the space on either side for saddle racks, bridle hooks, and storage cabinets. If you frequently use a saddle cart, be sure to verify your layout against the cart's dimensions, the space required for maneuvering, and the clearance needed for the door to open fully.
Latticed windows for visibility; solid panels to hide storage
The latticed window in the upper center allows for partial visibility, enabling you to see the area directly opposite the entrance from the stable aisle.
Meanwhile, the solid panels on either side shield the saddle racks and storage units mounted against the walls from direct view. If you require a greater degree of privacy, the latticed window can be replaced with a solid bamboo panel—please take a look at our other available front panel models-Multipurpose Barn Front Panel. Or there are another designs for the barn front panel.
New Stables
Before finalizing the positions of support posts and side partitions, mark the clear opening dimensions, door swing directions, and aisle layout on a single drawing. If there are multiple stalls arranged side-by-side, number them individually and specify which entrances should feature the same door orientation or exterior appearance.

Renovating Existing Stables
Record the clear height based on the finished floor level, and take photographs of the openings, the adjacent fixed surfaces, and the floor-wall junctions. Clearly indicate the locations of any floor slopes, thresholds, or drainage channels. As the available mounting surfaces may change after the removal of old doors, please specify which existing components you intend to retain when submitting your project documentation.

Does the tack room front include the entire room?
This page displays the front-facing components for functional rooms. Side partitions, rear walls, and interior storage solutions can be specified separately when requesting a quote.
What dimensions are required for retrofitting existing stables?
Please provide the clear width and height of the opening, photos of the supporting posts or walls on either side, and the width of the aisle.
How do the upper grilles/windows open? Can the doors be fitted with locks?
The images show the grilles and visible hardware. The specific opening mechanism for the windows, the door swing direction, and the type of lock will be determined during the final project configuration.
Can this be installed outdoors or used as a stall front for horses?
This product is designed for tack rooms and similar functional spaces. If your project involves outdoor exposure or direct contact with horses, please specify the usage conditions so we can confirm the appropriate configuration and suitability for installation.
What is the difference between the total width of the front and the clear opening width?
The total width includes the frame, the door, and the side panels. The clear opening width refers to the actual usable passage width when the door is open. Please refer to our measurement and installation guide when selecting your model.
Can I request a quote for multiple functional rooms at once?
Yes. You may list the intended use, opening dimensions, quantity, and door swing direction for each room in a single document. For adjacent rooms, please include a floor plan to help us verify the door swing clearance.
