Why beekeepers choose these
We run these frames in our own hives. Pine keeps them light and easy to nail up, and the grooved bars let you run wax or plastic foundation. A reliable, economical deep frame for hobbyists and commercial beekeepers alike.

Commercial vs Select grade
Commercial grade may have superficial knots or minor color variation in the timber. Select grade is a higher, knot-free grade. Both are structurally sound — choose Select if appearance matters to you.
Assembly & wiring
Frames ship flat-packed. To assemble you'll need frame nails or staples (and optionally wood glue) — these aren't included but are a quick add to your order.
You'll also need foundation: these deep frames take either wax or deep plastic foundation, which fits straight into the grooved bars.
To wire your frames, the side bars are pre-drilled with 4 holes. Many beekeepers fit brass eyelets in these holes to stop the wire cutting into the timber, and a frame wiring jig makes tensioning the wire much easier.
