Company Description
Border Forklift Services is a well-respected company that specialises in the supply and maintenance of forklift trucks. Operating since 1991, Border Forklift Services started business from a small workshop near Carlisle and has built, and earned, an incredible reputation throughout the last 20 years. The company is now recognized as the best in Cumbria for the supply and maintenance of forklifts. We are committed to providing all customers with the same level of quality service. From small businesses to large fleet requests, we are able to provide maintenance packages to suit your requirements. We are also pleased to supply the Nexen range of counterbalance forklifts as well as the Aisle-Master range of articulated forklifts. Alongside new models, we also sell refurbished machines as cost-effective solutions. As a variation from forklifts we are also pleased to be agents for the new Multihog multi-purpose machine. This is designed to be used for a range of applications such as road sweeping, gritting, snow-ploughing, blowing, grass and hedge cutting, chemical spraying, verge maintenance, and more. In fact there doesn’t seem to be much that this machine can't do! Please visit our website to find out more about our services and products, or contact our friendly team at Border Forklift Services.

Nexen Range

We supply the fantastic Nexen X-Range of counterbalanced forklift trucks. There are seven models in the range with capacities ranging from 2.0 tonnes to 3.5 tonnes. The X-Range features a one-piece chassis and low centre of gravity for stability, Smart Dash system for full engine monitoring - automatic engine switch off if any triggered warning are not rectified within a time limit, and are powered by Kubota or Yanmer engines. Customers can choose between three packages - Standard, Optima, and Optima Plus (each with a choice of drivetrain configurations). Please contact us for further information regarding the Nexen X-Range.

Aisle Master Range

The new AC Aisle-Master features a 20kw drive motor and is arguably the most powerful electric articulated truck on the market when it comes to speed, gradeability and productivity. The Aisle-Master range of electric models is perfectly suited to businesses who operate a policy of not using engine powered vehicles. This is often the case in the food manufacturing and pharmaceutical industries. The Aisle-Master is expertly designed and manufactured to achieve the abilities of the conventional forklift and also features superior visibility for narrow aisles and high reach applications to reduce product damage.

Hire Department

For immediate temporary solutions, please contact us to find out about our hire service. We currently provide a 1.6 Ton Gas Truck manufactured by Yale with a capacity of 1600kg and a HELI Gas Counterbalance with 1500kg capacity.
