There is provided an alternative construction of driver's cab (1) for a
load-handling vehicle and in particular an alternative construction of
door (5) for a driver's cab. The door (5) is pivotally mounted on one of
the uprights (13) of the driver's cab (1) and does not protrude outwardly
from the driver's cab when opened or closed. The door (5) is mounted so
that it effectively pivots about its own substantially vertical plane.
The door (5) is provided with a locking mechanism that allows the door to
be secured in position relative the upright (13) without the need for
additional locking members being mounted on another of the uprights (13)
on the driver's cab. The construction of driver's cab is lightweight and
compact and allows for a more simplified manufacture by virtue of the
omission of additional components.
