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