Reach truck
A warehouse truck whose mast or fork carriage reaches into racking while the chassis remains in the aisle.

Separate single reach, double-deep and rack geometry
Compare reach-truck variants against one rack arrangement and pallet orientation. A double-deep or pantograph description identifies a research route, but the quotation must establish the actual reach mechanism, placement depth and capacity at height. A turning radius is not a stacking-aisle specification. Hold pallet dimensions, rack clearances and the required handling movement constant before comparing different published aisle or reach figures.
Questions to resolve in the quotation
- Define single-deep or double-deep storage, pallet orientation and all rack clearances.
- Request reach travel, fork dimensions and the residual-capacity chart for the selected mast.
- Separate lowered mast, free lift, full lift and overhead-guard height in a drawing.
- Ask for loaded stacking-aisle and cross-aisle evidence using the actual pallet and rack.

These are research links, not a supplier ranking, availability confirmation or compatibility approval. The checklist is ForkliftIQ buyer interpretation; model-specific facts and primary-source URLs remain on each linked model page. Record missing documents in the brief instead of filling them with another model’s values.

This model page connects published configuration claims to the warehouse measurements and supplier questions needed before quotation.
Where this category makes sense
High-bay pallet storage on level floors where aisle width, rack depth and lift height are tightly controlled.
Where the category label is insufficient
Uneven outdoor yards or applications that ignore residual capacity and rack interface at full lift.
Selection variables
Define these before requesting a model.
A useful supplier response should address the same operating inputs. Similar capacity labels do not make two configurations technically comparable.

How to specify a reach truck
Describe the load before describing the truck. Record maximum and typical weight, dimensions, load centre, stability and whether the load is palletised, suspended, clamped, unusually long or otherwise difficult to support. State the required lift, reach or transport movement and identify the attachment that will be installed. Capacity must be evaluated for the complete configuration rather than a bare chassis.
Document the route and work area. Include aisle and turning space, rack and door openings, floor or ground condition, gradients, dock plates, overhead restrictions, pedestrian interfaces, operating temperature, weather and contaminants. State daily and peak operating hours, travel distance, lift cycles and shift pattern. These inputs determine chassis, tyre, cooling and energy requirements.
Compare complete configurations
Require the exact model, rated-capacity basis, load chart or residual-capacity evidence, overall dimensions, mast or boom data, tyres, steering and brake arrangement, battery and charger or engine specification, attachment, safety options and environmental limits. Ask the supplier to identify every assumption and exclusion.
Normalize commercial scope before comparing price. Record freight basis, import documentation, commissioning, operator or technician training, included spare parts, warranty period, exclusions, claim route and the legal entity responsible for support. A cheaper quotation may omit energy equipment, attachment functions, documentation or after-sales work.
Plan parts and maintenance before purchase
Request the preventive-maintenance schedule, consumable and wear-parts list, recommended initial spares, parts-identification method and normal lead times. Clarify who can access diagnostics, parameters and software. For electric equipment, include battery, charger, connector, controller and communication details. For combustion equipment, include engine, emission, filtration and cooling configuration.
If replacement parts will be sourced later, preserve the full truck model and serial or chassis number, configuration and original component labels. Photograph part numbers, connectors, ports, mounting points and dimensions. Similar appearance and a broad category name are not sufficient compatibility evidence.
Verify the supplier role
A manufacturer, export company, regional office, dealer and service agent may have different responsibilities. Confirm which legal entity will quote, invoice, receive payment, deliver, commission and honour warranty claims. Where authorization affects software, warranty or parts access, obtain current written evidence from the brand or network.
The profiles linked above were included because a company-controlled website or official network source showed a relevant equipment route. ForkliftIQ has not audited current production, stock, certificates, technical suitability, commercial reliability or after-sales performance. Treat every profile as a structured research starting point.

Common questions
Use the type as a starting point.
The final decision depends on a documented application and a current model-specific offer.
Is every reach truck suitable for the same work?
No. Capacity, dimensions, energy system, stability, controls and environmental limits vary by model and configuration.
Do the linked suppliers prove current availability?
No. The links lead to researched company profiles whose reviewed sources show related equipment scope. Request a current model-specific quotation.
What should be sent with an enquiry?
Send the load, load centre, lift or reach, aisle and site limits, duty cycle, energy constraints, attachment, quantity, destination and required delivery date.
