The correct sense of reach in the Dictionary.com definition is number 3: "to succeed in touching or seizing with an outstretched hand, a pole, etc." This is what Okrand describes SIch as meaning. It's not clear to me whether it could also mean sense 5: "to stretch or extend so as to touch or meet"; can we say 'aqroS SIch yorghmey The bookcase reaches the ceiling?

The season 2 finale of Star Trek: Discovery has this spoken line:

"We will wade knee-deep through the ruin of our enemies."

{tugh mayIttaHvIS qIvDu'maj SIch jaghpu'ma' pIgh.}

Now, this sentence was (probably) not written by Okrand. But it's Star Trek canon, and it's reasonably good Klingon, so I think (at least in L'Rell's dialect) this means that {SIch} can also have Dictionary.com's sense 5.
