WITH ROOF, crown board AND FLOOR

Fixed-site Dadant US hive cut down to the essentials: a 25 mm wooden brood box with ten wired 48 × 30 frames, a plastic screened floor with tray, an crown board and a metal-clad roof. No half super and no super frames. 508 × 424 mm outside, 464 × 380 inside, about 12 kg. For anyone who already has supers or is expanding the apiary with loose brood boxes.

A brood box with floor and roof is a hive that starts: for nucs, splits and replacements, without paying for the super you already own.

01 · WHAT IT IS

Box, screened floor, crown board and roof; not the super

The 25 mm wooden body with ten wired Dadant US frames of 48 × 30 (48 top bar: 47 Blatt frames rattle), the plastic screened floor with pull-out tray, the crown board and the metal-clad wooden roof. What it does not bring is the half super or its frames: it goes with the supers you already have, or you buy the version with super when needed.

02 · THE SCREENED FLOOR

Ventilates and counts varroa

The floor mesh lets air and fallen varroa through; the tray goes in to count the drop after a treatment and comes out the rest of the year so the mite cannot climb back. In hot, humid climates it is the difference between a box that breathes and one that condenses. It cleans with a pressure washer.

03 · WHAT FITS

All the catalogue’s Dadant US

Dadant US footprint of 508 × 424 with 464 × 380 clear: it stacks with the catalogue’s Dadant US half supers, crown boards, roof feeders and excluders, and the frames are the 48 × 30 usual in Spain. It is fixed-site, with no legs or migratory handles: to move it, folding catches and straps.

04 · BEFORE POPULATING

Paint outside, wax inside

The wood arrives untreated: two coats of hive-safe paint or oil outside and none inside. The frames are wired without foundation: Dadant US brood foundation comes separately, or drawn frames from another hive to start a nuc.

05 · BEFORE YOU BUY

The box is supplied with its ten wired frames, screened floor, crown board and roof; half super, foundation and paint come separately.

✕ DOESN’T FITAnyone starting out who needs the complete hive with super, or working in 47 Dadant Blatt or Langstroth.
