1. FIT FOR STANDARD LANGSTROTH 10 FRAME BEEHIVES – Ensure compatibility by checking that your beehive base measures 16.5' x 22.5'. The Beehive Stand is precision engineered to securely support standard Langstroth beehives, providing a stable foundation while protecting your colony from ground dwelling predators such as skunks and ants. Lifting the hive improves accessibility for inspections and maintenance. 2. REINFORCED DURABILITY WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION – Made with durable plastic and metal support rods, this stand evenly distributes the weight of the hive to prevent sagging or collapsing. The interlocking side joints create a seamless, rock solid connection, while extended metal brackets serve as convenient frame pads during honey extraction or brood control. 3. OPTIMIZED VENTILATION CLIMATE CONTROL – Raise beehives 12 inches above ground to increase airflow underneath, reduce moisture buildup, and prevent overheating in summer. Improved ventilation helps bees naturally regulate indoor temperature and supports colony health in extreme weather. 4. FLOOD PROTECTION DRAINAGE DESIGN – Say goodbye to waterlogging. The raised design directs rainwater and melting snow away from your colony, while the open frame construction prevents accumulation. Durable plastic resists rot and corrosion in wet environments.
