Ideal for safe and stable handling of loads which are longer than the forklift forks, our fork extensions offer long reach and stabilising capabilities, whilst retaining the manoeuvrability of the lift truck for conventional operating.
Manufactured from heavy duty 5mm thick steel with additional 8mm thick internal strengthening plates, all our fork extensions incorporate a fully rounded toe, with heavy duty capping, for easy entry into and out of loads or pallets.
A removable heel pin allows for drive in entry, negating the need for manual lifting (in compliance with Health & Safety manual lifting regulations), whilst ensuring the fork extensions are safely secured to the truck forks.
For safety reasons, the fork extensions encompass a rear strap 'closed base' design, in keeping with BS EN recommended standards
Manufactured to conform to ISO 13284 British Standards, our forklift extensions offer the perfect solution to long load stability handling and like all our forklift attachments, will come fully tested and certified to comply with the latest Health & Safety Regulations
N.B. Fork extension length should not exceed existing fork length by more that 66%

"The forks we had were only 900mm long and we needed fork extensions to load and unload vehicles. The extensions have ensured we are now safer when loading and unloading and we will have less issues with damages. Your company was very quick in replying and excellent with the information provided. The price was very good and the delivery was done in a very short time frame. The whole experience was excellent I will definitely use you again"

"We have to move portable pay kiosks which are very unstable on the forks. The fork extensions enable us to move these kiosks safely and without any problems. We chose your company because of the build quality and price and are very happy with the fork extensions"

"Having recently manufactured fixtures for Rolls Royce weighing over 2300kgs, which had to be packed in crates, our challenge was managing the length of the forks as when we attempted to lift the crates the wooden runs would split and crack. Your fork extensions allowed us to distribute the load more evenly. The high quality extensions were delivered well within the timescale. It was a breeze to deal with you and have no concerns about purchasing again"
- Stuart Beal, Project Manager, Telbrook
What is the maximum length of fork extensions I can have based on a 1200mm long fork ?
In this instance the longest fork extension you can have would be 1900mm, which would be 66% longer than the forks. This same percentage would apply whatever the fork length
