7. Keep a list of your tack.
It is very useful to keep a comprehensive, up-to-date inventory of all your tack, including colour and make and any security markings, with photographs.
8. Consider investing in a tack locker.
It may also be worthwhile considering investing in a tack locker. These usually hold up to four saddles and are bolted to the floor.
9. Get your tack marked.
Marked tack is also a good deterrent for thieves. The general advice is to engrave/punch your postcode or yard postcode followed by the number of the premises onto your saddle - under the flap - and bridle. You can buy inexpensive kit to do this yourself from DIY stores, or you’ll often find a tack marking service offered at local shows.
10. Consider CCTV
It would also be advisable to consider installing CCTV, sensory lighting and security systems which once again can act as effective deterrents.
11. Insure your tack
Some horse insurance policies also cover tack theft, as do some home insurance policies. Take a look and try to ensure you are covered.
