Narrow Aisle Forklifts
Narrow aisle forklifts are specifically designed to be able to fit down very narrow warehouse aisles. This provides several benefits to business owners like significantly increasing their space to keep objects. Even smaller aisles can fit a forklift through them. Narrow aisle forklifts are famous for their maneuverability and not much space is required to move a narrow aisle lift truck. Their design has enabled them to move without much space due to the fact that most objects that hinder movement have been squished up the main forklift body in their design.
These forklifts have a weakness in that they are somewhat slow. These forklifts would not cut it if you need it to transport goods across large distances. This problem could be easily solved if you additionally have access to a regular forklift. Several businesses prefer to use the narrow aisle forklift to transport the load to a central location. These items are then handed off to a standard forklift that is responsible to take it the bulk of the distance. Usually, narrow aisle forklifts are unable to transport as much weight so they are only effective for loads which are small.
