These Warre boxes use the same quality lumber as our premium Warre hive boxes, but failed to meet our stringent quality requirements. They may include small, tight knots, filled holes, dents, or minor defects that aren't allowed on our other Warre boxes. No defects that compromise the structural integrity or fit of the box are allowed, and the bees don't care one way or the other.
Bee Built Warre boxes are made in Oregon using sustainably sourced Western Red Cedar. Our Warre boxes are ⅞" (22mm) thick, use rabbet joints to better control breezes and light.
Viewing windows come standard and make it easy to see in without disturbing your colony—a great option for new and hands off beekeepers! The windows are made of 1/8" Lexan, which is much stronger than glass and has good insulation properties. It's designed to last. Our window latches are made of durable walnut.
The fasteners are made from 410 stainless steel for more strength, great looks, and longevity.
Sloped handles allow for improved rain runoff and better grip for lifting.
Warre boxes measure 13 3/4" wide by 13 3/4" long by 8 1/4" deep. Boxes are made from 7/8-inch thick lumber.
