The manual Beehive Lifter gives you the same lifting help as our electric models, powered by a simple hand crank instead of a motor. For a lot of beekeepers that's exactly right: full support for heavy supers, nothing electronic to charge or maintain, and the most affordable way to take the weight off your back.
It's the same tough, made-to-order steel frame on two 13-inch wheels, with the adjustable wide/narrow stance for stability on grass, gravel, or narrow paths — and it folds down to travel.
Simple on purpose
- Roll it up parallel to the hive.
- Grip the box with the side handles.
- Crank the deep box up to a 3'8" lifting height.
- Set it aside, work the hive, then lower it back down.
Handles full supers up to 250 lbs (300 lbs with rails), and its universal design works with standard 8-, 10-, and 12-frame Langstroth hives. Made in the USA and backed by our 10-year warranty.
