Narrow Aisle Forklifts
The narrow aisle forklift is designed specially to fit down narrow aisles in a warehouse setting. These machinery allow business owners the opportunity to increase their storage capacity to keep their goods and materials. Even smaller aisles could fit a lift truck through them. Narrow aisle forklifts are famous for their maneuverability and not a lot of space is required to move a narrow aisle forklift. Their design has enabled them to move without much space because of the fact that most items which hinder movement have been squished up the main lift truck body in their design.
Some of the disadvantages are that compared to standard forklifts, they are really slow. For example, if you are required to move items across large distances, in terms of speed, these lift trucks will not cut it. This issue can be solved easily 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 things are then handed off to a regular forklift that will take it the bulk of the distance. Typically, narrow aisle forklifts could not move as much weight so they are just effective for smaller loads.
