Will it fit my hive?

The Multi-Guard was designed to solve several common issues—one of which is the varying sizes of wooden entrance blocks due to different hive floor openings. Our solution? We created a design where the central section fits snugly into smaller hive entrances, while the adjustable ‘wings’ on either end extend to cover any extra space for longer entrances. This ensures a secure fit across a wide range of hive setups, eliminating gaps and improving overall protection and performance.

If your hive entrance is longer than the Multi-Guard (441mm) then we are currently working on an 'Extender' which will mean it fits, please get in touch and we will send you a prototype 'Extender' with your order! 

  • WBC - Sadly we haven't been able to make this fit yet! So many designs but each one incompatible with the Multi-Guard. 
  • Thorne Langstroth - ever so slightly narrower than a standard Langstroth, just choose this option at checkout and we shave off a few mm to make it fit!
  • Abelo - please contact us direct as many of our customers have found that they can simply use the screens in the slot of the Abelo. We're busy working out which ones fit. 
  • Swienty - please contact us direct as we can offer a slimmed down version that allows for the sloping entrance of the Swienty hive. 

Any questions please do ask! We are always on the end of the phone or email. 01892 322 365 or natalie@hive-five.co.uk
