Narrow Aisle Forklifts
The narrow aisle forklift is designed specifically to fit down narrow aisles in a warehouse environment. These equipment allow business owners the chance to increase their storage capacity to keep their materials and goods. Even smaller aisles are capable of fitting a lift truck through them. Narrow aisle forklifts are famous for their maneuverability and not a lot of space is needed to move a narrow aisle forklift. Their design has enabled them to move without a lot of space due to the fact that the majority of objects which hinder movement have been squished up the main lift truck body in their design.
These forklifts have a weakness in that they are quite slow. These forklifts will not cut it if you need it to move merchandise across large distances. This issue could be easily solved if you also have access to a regular lift truck. Several companies choose to use the narrow aisle forklift to move the load to a central location. These items are then handed off to a regular forklift that is responsible to take it the bulk of the distance. normally, narrow aisle forklifts are unable to transport as much weight so they are just effective for loads which are small.
