Why Choose Hoover Hives?

Hoover Hives are known for their beautiful and skillfully crafted wax-coated beehives.

Every exterior hive part that may encounter rain or snow has been built with Fir wood. Theyve thoughtfully chosen to use Fir wood over the traditional Pine because Fir has a tighter knit grain flow within the wood than Pine does. This makes their exterior parts far more durable and less likely to shrink, expand, warp, or twist from the rain.

Hoover Hives wax-coated hive bodies and supers have been designed to stay true for years to come. They've been dipped in 100% natural beeswax helping them weather the elements without the hassle of painting your hives. Every joint on Hoover Hives' boxes utilizes the dovetailing technique that leaves no room for error and is the defining factor that keeps Hoover Hives perfectly square.

Once theyve cut the wood, they dip each part into a pool of natural beeswax. They allow the beeswax to be soaked into the hive parts. This not only protects the wood but is also what gives their hives their natural golden honey lustrous allure.

Hoover Hives 10 frame hive parts use dimensions that are consistent with the industry standard and are interchangeable with all other Langstroth 10 frame beehives.

Great , classy looking hives. Will look great in any yard/ field. Very high quality hives.the wax coat is generous which adds to the quality.
The frame parts are flimsy and I expected better looking at the quality of the hives.

Hi Amol, we are so happy you took the time to share your input about the waxed beehive. Thank you!

After a call to Bee Supply for clarification, was easy to assemble. You need a rubber mallet in your tool kit and a drill. But pretty easy.

Glad to hear you were able to get it all complete! We are glad you reached out and always happy to help!

I put 5 sets of these together. Highly recommend Brad nailer and compressor. Forget the golden nails. Once in a rhythm, took right at 1 hour to build each one.
Says made in China, wish I’d known that before hand. Now my bees probably won’t even look at me as they fly by.

Hi Steve, thank you so much for sharing your feedback. Hearing valuable input from our customers always helps us to grow for the better!
