Forklifts for long metal and building loads

Aluminum extrusions, pipe, lumber and steel are long loads. A standard forklift carries them crosswise, which needs wide aisles and wide doors. A multi-directional truck such as a Combilift can drive sideways and carry long loads lengthwise. That lets you store long stock in narrower aisles and move it through standard doors. We also fit long forks and spreader bars on counterbalance trucks where aisles allow.

From the rail-side plants on Halethorpe Farms Road to the flex parks off Washington Boulevard, fleets follow the building stock. One side is older rail-served plants and warehouses with lower ceilings and heavy-use floors. The other side is flex office and warehouse buildings with dock-high doors near the Beltway. Which one you occupy decides mast height, tire type and battery chemistry.
