Apimaye brood and super sets put a complete insulated 10-frame hive into a single order, so the boxes, base and fittings arrive matched instead of being pieced together. Every set includes a queen excluder that confines the queen to the brood box, along with a pollen trap, a vented bottom board, a removable tray in the base and stainless INOX latches.
The sets differ in box depth and in whether frames are included. The smaller Apimaye brood and super sets pair a brood box with one matching super, either full depth or Manley, and you pick the frames on the listing: assembled wood, black Beemax plastic or the Apimaye Handy Frame. With the all-Manley set every frame in the hive is the same size, so comb can move freely from box to box. For a bigger honey crop, look at the full-depth brood with two Manley supers, or the Super Hive, which adds a second full-depth box and is designed to run as a double brood under two Manley supers.
The larger sets come without frames. They take 10 full-depth and 20 Manley frames, or 20 of each, so add Manley frames and full depth frames to the order. A beehive stand keeps the finished hive off damp ground, and if you are unsure which set fits your apiary, ask the Beewise crew in Perth or Sydney.

Manley supers are 170mm tall, that is 72mm shorter than the Full Depth supers, and therefore use the shorter Manley frame. Beekeepers choose Manley supers for honey production mainly because when filled with honey, they weigh approximately 10kg less than a honey filled Full Depth super.
