Narrow Aisle Forklifts
The narrow aisle forklift is designed particularly to fit down narrow aisles in a warehouse setting. These equipment allow business owners the chance to increase their storage capacity to store their goods and materials. Even smaller aisles are capable of fitting a lift truck through them. Narrow aisle forklifts are famous for their maneuverability and not much space is needed to move a narrow aisle forklift. Their design has allowed them to move without much space due to the fact that most 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 somewhat slow. These forklifts will not cut it if you need it to transport goods across large distances. This problem can be easily solved if you additionally have access to a regular forklift. Some businesses 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 which is responsible to take it the bulk of the distance. Typically, narrow aisle forklifts can not transport as much weight so they are only effective for loads which are small.
