Narrow Pallet Jacks

It's the outside fork width. A standard pallet jack spans about 27 inches across its two forks; a narrow pallet jack spans about 21 inches (21 in). Both Sumachay narrow models — the SH20N and SESR15-N — use 21 in x 47 in forks, so they fit into pallets and openings a full-width jack can't enter.

Yes — that's exactly what they're for. The 21-inch fork width is designed to enter Euro-style pallets and narrow-stringer or narrow-entry pallets where standard 27-inch forks won't fit. If your loads include import pallets or custom narrow skids, a narrow-fork pallet jack is the right tool.

Yes. The SH20N is a manual hydraulic narrow pallet truck rated 4,400 lb (2,000 kg) — light and economical for lower move counts. The SESR15-N is an electric narrow-fork walkie rated 3,300 lb (1,500 kg) on a lithium battery — better for long shifts, ramps, and high-frequency moves where hand-pumping slows operators down.

Both the SH20N and the SESR15-N use 21 in x 47 in forks — that's a 21-inch outside fork width and 47-inch fork length. The 21-inch width is the key narrow-aisle and narrow-pallet dimension; the 47-inch length suits standard and Euro-style pallet depths.

Both narrow models are stocked and dispatch by freight carrier to any Canadian address. Toronto-area customers can often arrange same-day or next-day pickup. The manual SH20N ships lighter than the electric SESR15-N, so its freight cost is typically lower.

Both narrow models are covered against manufacturing defects and backed by our Canadian parts support. As a direct manufacturer we stock the wheels, seals, hydraulic components, and — for the electric SESR15-N — battery and charger parts, so wear items are easy to service without long waits.

Both narrow models use a fixed 21-inch outside fork width — they are not adjustable-width pallet jacks. A fixed narrow fork is more rigid and lower-maintenance than an adjustable mechanism, and 21 inches is sized to enter Euro-style and narrow-entry pallets. If all your pallets have a standard 27-inch entry, a standard-width pallet jack is the better fit; if you handle a mix, most operations keep one narrow and one standard unit rather than a single adjustable one.

Usually, yes. 'Narrow', 'slim', and 'small' pallet jack typically describe the same thing: a jack with a reduced fork width — here 21 inches instead of the standard 27 — and a compact footprint that turns and travels in tight aisles, delivery trucks, and congested staging areas. If your constraint is the pallet opening or the aisle width, a narrow pallet jack is the size you want.
