NEW EDITION
High-Quality Buzzbee Langstroth Telescopic Beehive Available in 8 & 10 Frame Sizes

This popular double deep super Langstroth hive has gone through a major upgrade, providing a number of enhancements from floor to roof.

 
Buzzbee Beehive with vents in the roof outer cover

FOUR HOLES ROOF VENTILATION

Langstroth boxes include much more ventilation through the roof/outer cover, enabling more warm air to flow upwards and out of the four ventilation holes. They’re designed to keep the bees in and pests out whilst allowing air to flow.


ENTRANCE STOPPER

The floor now has a stop at the front where the adjustable entrance is placed. This prevents pushing the adjustable entrance too deep into the hive, which can be a problem once the bees are inside.


PRE-DRILLED HOLES FOR EASY ASSEMBLY

The super/brood full deep Langstroth boxes have been totally redesigned to make it easier during the construction phase. The super strong dovetail joints still remain, but they now have pre-drilled holes to help prevent splitting of the timber, reducing how much work is needed on your part.

These allow you to use either nails (provided) or, if you want even greater strength, 45mm wood screws (will need to be provided).


 

SUPER-SIZED HANDLES

In addition to the enhancement for the construction, we have generously enlarged the hand grips to make it much easier to handle whilst wearing gloves.


SCREWS NOT NAILS

Another important improvement is the way that the pre-built parts are assembled. We believe in quality and strength, and therefore have assembled the roof/outer cover and the floor using screws and not just nails. This will ensure many more years of better physical bonding when the wood naturally tries to twist and distort. 

 

Langstroth boxes and Langstroth frames are easily the most popular options and are also arguably the best choice for a beginner. This is a perfect starter hive to learn the different parts of the hive, whilst being available in two sizes.

The following is included in the Buzzbee Beehive:

  • 8 or 10 Frame Buzzbee Langstroth Beehive

good kit

Overall I'm pretty happy with these hive kits, quick and easy to put together, few little issues with sharp edges on the tin lids and splitting here and there but if you have little wood glue and different sets of nails ect shouldn't be an issue, I will be buying a ton more

#You need to be handy with tools and have a bee frame jig for this kit for any new bee keeper

I would like to see a coil of frame wire included in the purchasing options as it doesn't come with any

Excellent service!

Ordered the 8 frame hive and everything came in good time. However the base wasn't quite right. Gave them a ring and they sent me a replacement straight away! Easy to assemble and looks great! Hive next to my nuc and unpainted at that stage :)

New Bee Hive prompt delivery. Very smart looking

I constructed the hive in a day. The dovetails needed a little tweaking but nothing a sharp chisel could not fix!
Good instructions and the complicated parts - the lid and base were already made! Oil finish on the outside and melted bees wax to coat the inside.
I was surprised by the plastic foundation - I have only used wire and wax - but happy to see how they go. I think there should have been a picture of these frames on the website
