All the HiveKeepers thinking, now in a shallower frame.

Not every beekeeper runs full-depth honey supers. The HiveKeepers Four-Cassette Shallow Frame brings the same clean, cassette-by-cassette harvest to a shallow-depth Langstroth setup. It holds four removable cassettes, fits into a matching shallow super and is easy to handle at the hive and on the bench.

How it works

1. Slot the frame into a matching shallow-depth Langstroth super.
2. Let the bees fill the four cassettes with honey.
3. At harvest, lift out the full cassettes and replace them with empties.

Why you’ll love it

• Made for shallower supers. A practical option for beekeepers who prefer a lighter, lower-depth honey box.

• Four cassettes, your timing. Take one cassette or the whole frame when the honey is ready.

• Easier cassette handling. The refined frame design makes cassettes easier to insert and remove.

• Stronger where it matters. A tapered end helps reduce the chance of snapping during handling.

• Steady on the bench. The bottom bar gives the frame a stable base when it is out of the hive.

• Use it again and again. Return emptied cassettes to the hive for the bees to clean and reuse.

Good to know

Will it fit my hive?

It is designed for a matching shallow-depth Langstroth super. Check the dimensions of your super before ordering.

Do I need the Micro Honey Harvester?

Yes. The frame and cassettes hold the honey; the Micro Honey Harvester extracts it.

What makes it different from the eight-cassette frame?

It is shallower and holds four cassettes rather than eight, making it suited to a lower-depth honey super.

Can I reuse the cassettes?

Yes. Return them to the hive after harvesting and the bees clean them for the next use.

A shallower frame, a lighter lift and the same clean HiveKeepers harvest.
