Fully assembled Langstroth starter hive with varroa mesh floor, reversible door, 1 x 10-frame brood body, 2 x shallow supers, frames and Australian-style roof. Our beehives are manufactured in small factories in Greece using sustainably sourced pine from Austria and the Czech Republic. Floor with varroa mesh for mite control and ventilation, and pull out drawer. Reversible door that can close the hive for moving or provide a good-sized entrance. Single brood box featuring metal frame rails and hand holds on all four sides. Two shallow super boxes with metal frame rails and hand holds on two sides. Shallow supers require half a sheet of brood foundation per frame. 30 assembled frames (no foundation or wire), 10 brood and 20 super. Australian style roof with 4 mesh-covered ventilation slots and galvanised steel covering. We supply these hives as they come from the factory, and they will need some minor preparation (filling and sanding) before painting or varnishing. They are made to be functional rather than decorative, though with very little work a perfect finish can be obtained. We believe that the quality of materials used is most important. Please look carefully at our photos as these are typical of the hive you will receive. Langstroth hives are by far the most popular standard around the world and the simplest to construct. They are therefore the perfect choice for beginners and experienced beekeepers alike. Large stocks always available. Brood Box 20″ x 16 1/2″ x 9 5/8 high (507mm x 420mm x 245mm high). Board thickness 3/4 (20mm). 5 5/8 high (145mm high). Frame height 5 1/8 (130mm). Require half a sheet of brood foundation (420 x 100mm). Floor 2 1/2 (65mm) high. Roof 2 1/2 (65mm) high.
