Details of Sliding plastic entrance block 373 × 39 mm

Sliding plastic entrance block, 373 × 39 mm: the sliding gates open, reduce or close the entrance without swapping the part.

Check the length first, because the fit is not decided by the hive: it is decided by the floor it mounts on.

01 · COMPATIBILITY

The floor decides, not the frame count

It mounts on the flat front edge of wooden fixed floors for Langstroth and Dadant hives, held with screws or clips. Branded plastic floors are a different matter: they come with moulded slots and take the entrance block of their own family — a NICOT floor takes the NICOT entrance, which clips into those slots.

So the useful question is not whether it suits a ten-frame Dadant, but which floor you have fitted.

02 · WHAT IT ADJUSTS

The width of the gap, not its height

The gates slide sideways, so they narrow the entrance front while leaving the same gap height. That covers the season: a wide entrance during the flow, a reduced front when there is robbing or a weak colony to defend, and a closed entrance for a short move.

What it does not do is filter by size. It holds back neither queen nor drones, and it is no use against the Asian hornet: that calls for a calibrated gap height.

03 · BEFORE YOU BUY

Measure the front edge of your floor before ordering: the reference is 373 mm long by 39 mm high.
