8F Full Depth Wooden Beehive Kit – Flat-Pack Brood plus Supers

A 8-frame full depth wooden beehive kit to build yourself

Flat-pack brood box, super, bottom board and migratory lid kit for beekeepers who like to assemble and finish their own woodware. Start with one super and add more as the colony builds up.

22mm New Zealand pine, accurately machined

The box kits are prime, knot-free seasoned New Zealand pine, 22mm thick, with rebated joints machined accurately so the assembled hive sits square and stable. Every box has four hand grips.

Raw timber, ready to seal

The boxes and base come untreated, so you choose the finish: hot wax dip, paint or a timber treatment such as Lanogard. See our timber treatment range.

Assembled marine ply bottom board

The base comes fully assembled: marine ply with solid cleats and wood risers, ready to paint or treat.

Migratory lid kit

A traditional migratory cover to assemble: Galvabond metal top, 12mm AA marine ply lining for extra insulation, cover rims and four vents. The bees regulate ventilation themselves by blocking and unblocking the vent holes.
