Horizontal Bee Sanctuary

Langstroth Short Box - Bee Sanctuary

A beautifully crafted Langstroth / Horizontal Beehive with universal Langstroth frame options.   Since 2013 the Bee Sanctuary has evolved from a triple medium horizontal Langstroth hive to being equipped with covered expansion for 2 medium honey supers.  This beehive can be used like a Top-bar hive, Langstroth hive, a Horizontal hive, Longbox hive, a comb production hive, or a mating hive.

100% made of Western Red Cedar.  Includes a reversible bottom board.   Holds 54 mini frames, or 22 medium frames, or with use of an extension can hold deep frames.  Will hold two standard medium boxes on top the hive but under the top cover.  Has a follower board.  The top cover is made of aluminum which dissipates heat during the summer months.  Each Sanctuary includes 6 incredible carvings.  The hive is held together with Eco Bee Box corner brackets, stainless steel locking clips, and multiple stainless steel entrance reducers.  Also adorned with copper plated screws and a copper chain.
