Electric Reach Trucks for Warehouse Operations
An electric reach truck is designed to place and retrieve pallets in warehouse racking. Its reach mechanism moves the load forward for positioning and retracts it for transport. With reach truck rental from Liftronic, warehouses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah get this capability without buying the equipment.
Reach trucks combine compact dimensions with high lifting capability, making them suitable for warehouses where storage height and working aisle space are important. Battery-powered operation provides quiet material handling with no tailpipe exhaust during use.
Liftronic helps match the truck to your pallet dimensions, load weight, rack height, aisle width and charging arrangements. Need a counterbalance truck instead? See our electric forklift rental options.
Reach Trucks with Double-Deep Forks
Liftronic Machinery supplies reach trucks with double-deep forks, also known as hydraulic telescopic forks, on request. These forks extend and retract hydraulically to position pallets in the second row of compatible double-deep racking.
A double-deep arrangement stores pallets two positions deep, allowing more storage locations between aisles. The additional horizontal reach helps operators access the rear position when the front position is clear.
This configuration can suit businesses storing multiple pallets of the same product. Successful operation depends on matching the truck, forks, pallets and racking to the warehouse's stock rotation requirements.
Please note: Double-deep forks increase horizontal reach; they do not increase the truck's maximum lifting height. Available lifting capacity must be confirmed at the required height and fork extension.
Benefits of Double-Deep Handling
- Greater storage density: Accommodate two pallet positions in depth within compatible racking.
- Better use of warehouse space: Reduce the proportion of floor space occupied by aisles where the layout permits.
- Flexible pallet positioning: Use hydraulic extension and retraction to reach front and rear storage positions.
- Suitable for grouped stock: Store matching products together where the retrieval sequence supports your operation.
- Rental access to specialised equipment: Obtain a suitable truck and fork arrangement without purchasing the equipment.
Rear pallets cannot be retrieved directly while the front position is occupied. Consider this when planning order picking and stock rotation.

Four-Way and Multidirectional Reach Trucks
For handling long loads such as timber, pipes, profiles and sheet materials, ask Liftronic about four-way or multidirectional reach truck options. Suitable machines can move sideways, helping position long loads within restricted spaces.
These configurations serve a different purpose from double-deep forks. Multidirectional travel assists long-load movement, while double-deep forks provide additional forward reach. Availability and suitability are confirmed against your load and warehouse layout.

Reach Truck Rental FAQs
What exactly is a reach truck?
A reach truck is a specialized electric forklift designed for high-density storage in warehouses and distribution centers. Its key features, a compact chassis and a retractable mast, allow it to operate efficiently in narrow aisles and stack goods at significant heights.
How is a reach truck different from a standard forklift?
The primary difference lies in their design and function. While a standard forklift carries its load in front, a reach truck's mast extends forward to place or retrieve a pallet and then retracts, bringing the load back within the truck's footprint. This design provides superior stability and allows for a much tighter turning radius, making it ideal for narrow-aisle operations.
Does Liftronic MHE Rental offer Reach Truck rentals?
Yes. Liftronic MHE Rental provides Reach Trucks from renowned brands like Toyota, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Still and Linde. Our reach trucks are ideal for narrow-aisle warehouses, high stacking and cold storage operations, with flexible rental terms, no security deposit and breakdown response within 6 hours across the UAE.
What types of reach trucks are available for rent?
Liftronic MHE Rental offers a variety of reach truck types to meet different storage and handling needs:
- Standard Reach Trucks: The most common type, ideal for single-deep pallet racking. They offer excellent maneuverability and lift capacity for general warehouse use.
- Double-Deep Reach Trucks: These specialized trucks feature a pantograph or scissor mechanism that can reach two pallets deep into racking. This significantly increases your storage density, making them perfect for warehouses with high-volume, low-selectivity goods.
- Scissor-Type Reach Trucks: Also known as pantograph reach trucks, these models use a scissor-like mechanism to extend the forks forward. This design is highly effective for reaching into racking and is a core feature of many of our single and double-deep reach trucks.
How high can a reach truck lift?
Liftronic MHE Rental offers a diverse fleet of reach trucks with various lift heights. Our models can typically reach heights of up to 13 meters, with a maximum lifting capacity of 2.5 tonnes, ensuring we can meet a wide range of vertical storage needs.
Can reach trucks be used in cold storage or outdoors?
Yes, we have specialized reach truck models available for rent. Our dedicated cold store reach trucks are designed to operate reliably in temperatures as low as -30°C. While standard reach trucks are not recommended for outdoor use, we also offer specific models with higher ground clearance and durable wheels, suitable for yard work.

What is the benefit of a Reach Truck retractable mast?
The retractable mast is a game-changer for warehouse efficiency. It allows the truck to have a compact design, which in turn reduces the required aisle width. By minimizing the space between your racking, you can significantly increase your storage capacity.
What is "Reach truck residual capacity"?
A forklift's nominal capacity is its maximum lifting weight at a specific height and load center. Residual capacity, however, is the actual lifting ability in a given situation. This capacity decreases as the lifting height increases or the load center moves further from the mast. Our team can help you understand residual capacity to ensure you choose a truck that can safely handle your specific loads.
What types of steering are available on your reach trucks?
We offer both 180° and 360° steering options on our reach trucks.
- 180° steering is straightforward and ideal for less experienced operators or occasional use.
- 360° steering allows continuous rotation of the steering wheel. This enables faster, smoother maneuvering, reduces operator strain and is highly beneficial for experienced drivers in high-turnover operations.
What is "Reach truck aisle width" for a reach truck?
Aisle width refers to the minimum space a forklift needs to safely turn within an aisle to place or retrieve a load. For example, some of our high-performance reach trucks can operate in aisles as narrow as 2.7 meters. This crucial measurement determines how compact your warehouse layout can be and how many pallets you can store. Our experts can help you select a reach truck with an aisle width that fits your current or desired warehouse configuration.
What is the reach truck rental price in Dubai and the UAE?
At Liftronic Machinery, the monthly rental cost for a Reach Truck starts from approximately AED 3,250, depending on the truck's lifting capacity and height.
