Product Information
Full details
The Betley Butterfly Fold Down Saddle Rack is an essential organizational tool for equestrian enthusiasts and stable managers looking to maximize space in tack rooms or narrow walkways. Designed for single-saddle storage, it provides a sturdy, reliable support system for your equipment while offering a unique fold-down mechanism to clear floor space when not in use. While the rack is highly durable and features a protective purple coating for indoor longevity, users should note that mounting hardware is not included, requiring the purchase of wall-specific fixings to ensure a secure installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is simple but requires attention to the mounting surface.
- Identify the Surface: Determine if your mounting surface is masonry, wood, or metal.
- Select Fixings: Purchase appropriate heavy-duty screws or bolts that match your wall type to ensure the rack can support the full weight of a saddle.
- Mounting: Use the included bracket as a template to mark drill holes, then securely mount the rack at a height convenient for your reach.
- Care: Periodically inspect the pivot point of the fold-down arm to ensure it moves smoothly. Check all wall fixings once a month to ensure they remain tight and stable. Wipe down the rack with a soft cloth to remove dust or accumulated tack grease.
