In a goods lift, a container or the body of a delivery van, the limit is not the weight but the length. A standard 1150 mm fork leaves no room to turn, and the truck ends up being dragged instead of steered. Shorter forks give back that room while keeping the same familiar hydraulics and controls.
Made to your space
- Fork length shorter than the standard 1150 mm, specified per order
- Fork width and spread chosen for half pallets, display pallets or custom supports
- Shorter overall length, so the truck turns inside a lift car or a container
- Capacity confirmed for the chosen fork length
Where it is used
- Goods and passenger lifts with limited floor area
- Sea containers, box bodies and delivery vans
- Half and quarter pallets, display pallets and small crates
- Machine rooms, archives and older buildings with tight corners
How to order
This truck is built to order, so its dimension table follows your configuration. Send us the pallet or load dimensions and the size of the space the truck has to work in, and we will confirm fork length, fork spread, capacity and delivery time.

What it is for
- Moving pallets short distances at floor level by hand — loading bays, shops, workshops.
- Occasional use, vehicle unloading, tight spaces.
- Special variants: stainless (food), galvanized (wet/outdoor), scale, low-profile, long/short forks, rough terrain.
This model
Short forks: half pallets and tight spaces.
Check before you choose
- Capacity (2 000–5 000 kg) with reserve
- Fork length/width vs. pallet (EUR 1200×800: standard 1150 mm forks; long forks for 2 pallets or long goods)
- Lowered fork height for low pallets
- Wheels: nylon (hard floor), polyurethane (quiet, delicate floors), rubber
- Environment: food/pharma → stainless; wet → galvanized
Not suitable for
- Lifting pallets onto racking or vehicles (max ~200 mm lift) — use a stacker
- Long distances or multi-shift — electric pallet truck
- Gradients/ramps with heavy loads
Before you order Standard selection — the parameters above are enough to choose the right model.
To confirm the right configuration we will ask you:
- Heaviest load including pallet, packaging and any attachment? Rule of thumb: use at most 80 % of rated capacity for safety and service life.
- Pallet type/dimensions (EUR 1200×800, industrial 1200×1000, half, display, custom)? Closed-bottom or low pallets? Entry height? Pallet compatibility matters more than capacity: fork length, overall width, lowered height and pallet underside.
- What is the floor: industrial concrete, asphalt, paving, gravel, uneven, potholes, sharp edges, expansion joints, thresholds, drains? Small polyurethane wheels and no suspension: tolerance for unevenness is very low. Sharp edges cut the PU tread; gaps stop the small load rollers.
- Distance per trip, trips per day, ramps? A hand truck is for short level moves; pushing 2 t up a ramp is unsafe.
Typical mistakes to avoid
- Pallet compatibility is more important than capacity — check entry height and pallet underside.
