Electric Single‑Reach Forklift – Narrow‑Aisle Reach Truck (CSA‑Certified)

Specifications

ConditionUsed
Part IDCAT‑REACH‑SINGLE‑NARROW
Category OverviewSingle‑reach forklifts are designed for high‑density warehouse environments where operators need maximum lift height, precise load handling, and exceptional maneuverability in narrow aisles. These electric reach trucks use an extending carriage to place pallets deep into racking while maintaining a compact chassis footprint, making them ideal for distribution centers, manufacturing facilities, and high‑turnover storage operations. This category includes 3,500–4,500 lb electric reach trucks from leading OEMs such as Toyota, Raymond, and Crown, with lift heights commonly ranging from 240” to 360”. All units are inspected for structural integrity, mast operation, steering, braking, and electrical performance, with optional CSA/MOL preparation available prior to delivery. This category is actively updated as new Toyota, Raymond, and Crown single‑reach trucks enter our inventory, including 2020–2023 high‑lift and narrow‑aisle models.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)What is a single‑reach narrow‑aisle forklift? A single‑reach truck uses an extendable pantograph to place and retrieve pallets one position deep, optimized for narrow‑aisle warehouse storage. What aisle widths do single‑reach trucks require? Most single‑reach units operate in aisles between 8–10 feet, depending on load size and model specifications. How does a single‑reach truck differ from a double‑reach truck? Single‑reach trucks handle one pallet position deep, offering faster cycle times and simpler operation compared to double‑reach units. Are these units CSA‑certified? Yes. All single‑reach trucks supplied by Premier Lift Equipment can be delivered CSA B335 compliant with full documentation for MOL and facility audits. What battery options are available? Units can be supplied with lead‑acid or lithium‑ion batteries. Lithium‑ion offers fast charging, zero maintenance, and strong multi‑shift performance. What lift heights and capacities are available? Typical single‑reach trucks range from 3,000–5,500 lb with lift heights from 240″–450″+, depending on mast configuration. Can single‑reach trucks be used on docks or outdoors? They are designed for smooth indoor warehouse floors and are not ideal for dock plates or outdoor surfaces. Do you offer chargers and battery maintenance programs? Yes. Premier Lift Equipment provides new, used, and reconditioned chargers, along with battery maintenance, watering systems, and lithium‑ion upgrade programs.
