Our deep Langstroth kit is made from clear grain, FSCⓇ certified wood. The two deep boxes assemble easily with our precision milled comb cut joints, creating an exact fit.

Choose your wood type, with windows or without, and whether you'd like 8-frame or 10-frame boxes.

A roof, inner cover, and screened bottom board are all included and made from the same sustainable wood. The shingled roof echoes the design of the comb cut joint, delivering a cohesive aesthetic for your apiary, garden or yard.

8-frame boxes measure 14" wide by 19⅞" long by 9⅝" deep

10-frame boxes measure 16" wide by 19⅞" long by 9⅝" deep

Note: If choosing cedar, know that the lumber color can vary significantly within the same tree (let alone from tree to tree)! The top of the tree might yield very light lumber, while the middle might be darker or pinkish. This is part of the beauty of cedar and why we use only clear wood -- so we don't waste even a scrap of this remarkable material.
