Heavy-Duty Hive Stand – 80mm x 80mm

Our new Heavy-Duty Hive Stand offers enhanced stability, stronger timber support and improved ground contact for demanding apiary conditions. This heavy-duty version has been designed to accommodate 80 × 80 mm wooden beams, providing a robust foundation for supporting multiple beehives. The stand features an enlarged 120 × 120 mm base plate, increasing the contact area with the ground and helping to distribute weight more evenly. This is particularly beneficial on soft or wet soil, where traditional narrow supports may gradually sink under the weight of fully loaded hives.

Each leg features independent height adjustment, making it easy to level the stand on uneven terrain and ensuring your beehives remain stable and properly supported.

For additional security, each base plate includes four pre-drilled anchoring holes, allowing the stand to be fixed to the ground using suitable ground pegs or stakes, similar to securing a tent.

Key Features

• Heavy-duty construction – designed for 80 × 80 mm timber beams (75mm x 75mm fencing posts)
• Independently Adjustable Legs – Each leg can be adjusted individually to compensate for uneven or sloping ground, allowing the hive stand to be perfectly levelled without the need for additional supports or ground preparation.
• Larger 120 × 120 mm base plates – improved weight distribution to help prevent sinking into soft ground.
• Four ground anchoring holes per base plate – allow additional securing with suitable ground pegs.
• Galvanised steel – durable and corrosion-resistant for outdoor use.
• Suitable for multiple hives – the length of the timber beams can be selected to suit your apiary setup.
