Narrow Aisle Forklifts
The narrow aisle forklift is designed specially to fit down narrow aisles in a warehouse environment. These equipment enable business owners the opportunity to increase their storage capacity to store their goods and materials. Even smaller aisles are capable of fitting a forklift through them. Narrow aisle forklifts are known for their maneuverability and not much space is needed to move a narrow aisle lift truck. Their design has allowed them to move without much space because of the fact that most things that hinder movement have been squished up the main forklift body in their design.
Some of the downsides are that compared to standard forklifts, they are very slow. For instance, if you are required to transport items across large distances, in terms of speed, these lift trucks would not cut it. This problem can be solved easily if you also have access to a regular lift truck. Several companies choose to utilize the narrow aisle forklift to move the load to a central location. These things are then handed off to a standard forklift which is responsible to take it the bulk of the distance. normally, narrow aisle forklifts could not move as much weight so they are only effective for loads that are small.
