W h o a re we and whe re are we located ?
We are three independently owned and operated
businesses, working together to provide you with the same
products (Washington and Colorado branches might use
Ponderosa Pine instead of Eastern White Pine that is used
by the Michigan branch), same quality, and same service
all across the United States. We do not have a central headquarters. Please contact your nearest branch for all catalog
requests, product questions, order placing, and dealership
inquiries. If one branch receives an order from someone
in another branch’s territory, all information will be trans-
M en d on , M i c h i ga n
ferred to the nearest branch so the customer can receive the
cheapest shipping option possible.
We have a website at which you can view and
download our catalog. Future improvements will keep you
up-to-date with new items and information and provide
contact information for all the branches. It will not be a
store front.
We have provided directions and maps to all the
branches on the opposite page. We welcome you to come
meet us and purchase at our stores!
W ha t a bo ut de a le rsh ip s?
We are interested in establishing a number of dealerships across the country. These dealerships can be temporary (one time order for one year) or more permanent
(standing yearly dealership status). Each comes under the
same policy.
That policy is fairly simple. Call or email the branch
nearest you to determine eligibility. If eligible, place a one
time order of $5,000 low volume value and get 25% discount (you pay $3,750). Catalog quantities and discounts
are disregarded. Maintain that discount by doing at least
$10,000 discount business with us every year, and you will
be protected from any new dealership inquires within 80
miles. Of course, smaller orders with lesser discounts and
unprotected statuses are also possible if you do not have
the capital or want to keep things experimental.
We recommend that dealers charge catalog prices for
products that are sold as they are bought from Beeline, but
they are welcome to assemble, paint, and sell at their own
charges. We also grant dealers the privilege to use up to 25%
of their dealership inventory for their own beekeeping needs.
Below is a map with all of our dealerships marked. To
avoid conflicts, dealerships must be at least 80 miles from
each other unless special arrangements are made. You
will notice that there are large empty areas. Perhaps you or
someone you know can help fill in the map.
We also strongly recommend associations, clubs, bee
schools, etc. to pool their order for a “dealership” status. A
primary objective of our dealership network is to cut shipping costs for the end customer, so any of these “dealership” methods helps everyone.
See p. 46, and 47 for a list of our dealers. Call us for
more information.

Information
Orde ring and S hippin g Policy
To place your order:
Call or e-mail your nearest Beeline branch (MI, CO,
or WA) and be prepared to provide us with the following
information:
1. Name
2. Mailing and Shipping address
3. Phone number
4. E-mail address (if you have)
5. Quantities and Catalog numbers for the products
you are ordering.
6. Credit Card information including 3-digit code
and billing address. (We do not recommend
e-mailing credit card info. Please call instead.)
Payment Terms
We expect payment up-front for most mail orders in
the form of credit card or check. For orders over $500, we
expect a 50% down payment, with the balance due within
30 days of ship date. We accept cash, check, or credit card
payment. Please make all checks payable to “Beeline.”
After 30 days from invoice date, the bill will be subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month.
Shipping
Orders can be picked up at our facility by appointment or they can be shipped to you.
We are using Fed Ex Ground or UPS for smaller
boxed orders, and whatever LTL shipping company offers
the best rate to your location for palletized shipments.
For estimates on small orders, calculate using the
chart on this page along with the map below. We do
not guarantee these rates and will always charge actual
whether lower or higher. Please call for a quote for orders
over 270 lb. or assembled and painted woodenware. You
may also want to check the dealership list on p. 46, and 47
to see whether you could drive for your wares.
Our products are priced for the material, labor, overhead, and profitability that they entail, and excludes any
shipping considerations. We do not bury shipping expense
in our product prices. Shipping and handling includes only
what is entailed in shipping, and calculated as simply and
accurately as we can: Fed Ex or USPS’s base charge, plus
a charge to cover box, label, and tape cost, miscellaneous
shipping charges, and labor to do the packing and labeling
to ensure that your order will get to you in as small a box
as possible and in good condition.
Likewise, several fees apply to palletized shipments.
Pallet Fees (ask for our Pallet Fee Policy) will be charged
for orders that are palletized, including orders that are
picked up, for which the customer requests palletizing.
With the best of efforts in our stock-picking, we can
still miss parts. If this occurs, give us a call, and we will
take care of the issue according to our return policy. Call if
you want more information on this policy.
Turn-around Time
Orders will be processed as quickly as possible. Most
small orders typically ship within one week. Skid-sized
orders may require three weeks or more, especially in peak
season. If you need something faster, just let us know. We’ll
check our inventory and schedule to see if we can accommodate it.
To receive faster service, we recommend ordering
items we generally keep in stock (prices in red on all price
tables). If your order contains non-stock items we may need
to backorder part or all of the order till we can complete
them. If this is the case, allow a minimum of two weeks.

1. Multiply quantity of each item by its
weight.
2. Total weights.
3. Round total weight to the nearest lb.
4. If the total weight exceeds 67 lbs., calculate
using this example: If total weight is 85 lb.,
find the rate using the map and chart for
67 lb., then find the rate for the remaining
18 lb., and combine for total rate.
5. Use the map and approximent zone areas
to estimate the distance from shipping
point to delivery point.
6. Use the chart for approximent shipping
charges. We will bill actual costs.

Beehive Parts
Beehive Parts
H ow d o I make s e ns e o ut of th ese p r ices?
While a beehive appears to be very simple, it is amazing how many parts go into
it, along with all the different styles and options which can complicate your purchasing
decisions. We recommend these steps in finding some of your products and prices.
Step 1: Consult the diagram on page 10 and 11 to help you determine what
items you will need.
Step 2: Find the spot in the catalog for the item you need. In general, items are
arranged in the catalog beginning at the top of the hive and ending at
the bottom. Or see the Index on page 3.
Step 3: Select the table for the frame size you plan to use. It is always in this order from top to bottom and left to right: 10-frame, 8-frame, and 5-frame.
Step 4: Find the heading for the grade you prefer. It is always in this order from
left to right: select, commercial, and budget.
Step 5: Compare and choose from unassembled, assembled, or painted options.
Step 6: Choose your quantity and Catalog number.
Step 7: Bring all these together to the correct cell for the correct price.
Of course this may not answer all the questions. We welcome you to contact
us with your questions.

W hat’s t his s tuf f like?
We’ll describe our woodenware as honestly as we can and hope your purchase matches your expectation. Want
something we don’t offer? Custom projects and modifications will be considered.
Any tips for assembling?
We recommend several methods for fastening our
products. Please ask for our free Assembly Instructions
Booklet, for directions. Also, see page 45 of this catalog for
some of our suggested fasteners.
What if you assemble?
We would be glad to put your equipment together.
We use jigs and other methods to ensure a square and correct finished product. We fasten everything with air staplers.
Frames and Inner Covers come with the extra benefit of
glue. If you desire other products to be glued, we can do so
for an extra fee.
Keep in mind that assembly adds considerable bulk
to a product and adds complications to shipping. We are
willing to ship assembled and painted equipment but there
will be extra shipping cost.
Can you paint, too?
Absolutely. We will attempt to give you the most
economic quality job possible. We are using a good grade
of block-out primer and a semi-gloss latex with a 15 year
warranty for a second coat. We spray boxes and feeders on
the stack which means that the upper and lower surfaces
do not get painted. You may paint those surfaces if you
want them painted. Lids and bottom boards get complete
first coats. Sides and exposed surfaces are given a second
coat. Since inner covers are usually not exposed we do not
offer painting on them.
We use white unless otherwise specified. We can do
any other color using Wal-Mart’s color chips for reference.
However we will charge an extra $25 per color per job for the
Michigan: 269-496-7001 · [email protected] | Colorado: 719-250-4005 · [email protected]
extra labor required in getting and handling the special color.
We will try to allow plenty of drying time before shipping your painted
product but it is impossible to ensure that they will come through with no damage.
Latex painted surfaces will stick to each other for quite some time after the pieces
have been painted and when it does, it can pull the paint on one of the pieces. We
will try to pack to minimize this problem as well as chaffing damage. If you desire
touch up paint we can arrange to send some along.
Because of the greater mess and drying time, we will not use oil base paints.
Painted
What about the grades?
You have a choice of three grades—select, commercial, and budget. These
grades are dictated primarily by wood quality, though milling defects also play a
small part in determining the grade.
Select is as near to perfect as we can humanly and practically get it. There
will be no knots of consequential size. Splits or milling defects are not allowed
at time of milling. Some variation in the width of box panels, especially in the
deep hive bodies can occur. This is largely due to unavoidable shrinkage after
milling. Handholds may have a little chipping at the end.
For Commercial, our objective is structural soundness. There will be no
holes or potential holes, splits of great significance (short splits are passed), or
milling defects. We attempt to keep knots at least 1 1/2” from nailing areas (ends
of box side panels) but can make no guarantees. Knots, sometimes rather large, are
allowed within the panel and on the edges as long as they are structurally sound.
We attempt to turn the best face out and pass it by commercial standards.
Missing knots on the inside of the edges are permitted as long as half of the
thickness of the panel is sound. We try to miss knots when we put in handholds.
Again, there may be some variation in panel width due to post-milling shrinkage.
Budget is the lowest grade. This grade may contain milling defects and large
knots, but we try to keep them out of the nailing areas. In general, our budget has
all the structural soundness and functionality of commercial.
Since we generate this grade by grading down from better grades, we may
have a limited supply.
Commercial
Budget
How do I decide between Finger and Rabbet Joint boxes?
Our corner joints on 10-frame and 8-frame boxes can be rabbeted or
finger joint.
Rabbeted joint (or lap-joint) is easier to assemble and if screwed and glued,
will last pretty long. We are told that rabbeted corners will weather better because
they do not have as much end grain exposed and no flat surfaces for water to
remain. Also, the rabbeted joint allows machine work only on four ends of panels
per box as opposed to machine work on eight ends of panels as in the case of a
finger joint box. Hence we offer rabbeted joint at a cheaper price.
Finger joint (or box joint) is the long-time favorite and with our snug fit,
will make a stronger joint than the rabbeted. With our more efficient manufacturing process and a nice snug fit, finger joint may be the better choice.
It’s your choice. We are prepared to accommodate your needs and interests
either way.

Options
Cover / Lid
The roof for your hive to keep the bees snug and dry. Beeline offers three styles.
The Garden style looks nice in your back yard garden. The Telescoping Lid (the
one pictured) is most common for a back-yard beekeeper. If you have your bees
on pallets, you may want to consider the Migratory Lid.
p. 12, 13
Garden Style
Telescoping
Migratory
Inner Cover
Buffer between lid and bees; can provide ventilation, especially if the Screened
Inner Cover is used. The raised panel style (shown here) is the most common.
Flat-sided works similarly to it, and the Screened Inner Cover is used mainly for
ventilation in summer months.
p. 13, 14
Raised Panel
Flat-sided
Screened
To p F e e d e r
Used for feeding large quantities in early summer and late fall months. It would
not be a good idea to use this style during the winter when your bees are in
cluster. An inboard feeder (shown here inside Deep Hive Body) or a bag with
several pin pricks set above the Brood Chamber works best for clusters.
p.15,16

Entrance
Shallow Super
This is where the bees put the honey. Beeline offers two sizes of supers, but recommends each beekeeper to choose one or the other and stick with that. This size
is nice for elderly who do not wish to carry as much weight. It also works well for
comb honey harvesting. We also offer plastic or wax foundation for this size.

Queen Excluder
A metal gridwork with holes large enough for worker bees, but too small for the
queen; excludes the queen from laying eggs in the honey super.
p. 16

Deep Hive Body
The brood chamber and year-around home for the bees. Often two brood boxes
are used to give the queen more room to lays her eggs. In winter you will reduce
the hive to one or two boxes so that the bees can conserve their heat. Beeline
offers either plastic or wax foundation for the frames.
p. 17

Bottom Board
The base of your hive, and “front door” where the bees enter and leave the hive.
Beeline has two styles to choose from. The Screened Bottom Board (pictured
here) is nice for ventilation and with the Mite Tray, is useful in monitoring your
mite count. The Reversible style is the standard bottom board.

Want to give your hive that traditional artistic, classy look in that quaint
corner of your garden? Our garden hive cover gives all that plus adds a little
more ventilation. Can be purchased with a painted copper lid for an additional $10. Call for pricing if real copper is desired.
The lid for the commercial beekeeper. The main part of this lid is made
of tongue-and-groove. The end cleats fasten these together in a 1/4” deep
10-frame - Commercial
groove with 1 5/8” for a skirt and 3/8” above. Another piece fastens flat-wise
to the top. This piece also has a 3/8” thick lip to come out over the skirt
pieces. This eliminates the crack that would allow water into the ends of the
tongue-and-groove pieces. We recommend using long nails or 2” staples
through that 3/8” lip and down through the end to bind it all together so that
the skirts do not break off so quickly.

With each compartment holding one gallon, this two compartment
feeder sits on top of the hive boxes, just under the inner cover. Bees access
the feeding area through an open slot that runs cross-ways in the middle. After syrup is poured into compartments, slow-to-sink pine slatted floats can be
placed on top of the syrup, preventing drowning. Or you can choose screen to
cover the center bee slot and allow bees to suck syrup through screen holes.
The bottom is recessed 1/8” to minimize rocking on burr comb left on the top
bars of the box below it. When we assemble, seams will be caulked to ensure
that it is leak-proof.
A real tool for moving bees and ventilating. Consists of a 1” frame
covered with 1/8” mesh screen. 3/8” strips fastened on the sides of the screen
side of the cover provide upper entrance for winter when turned upside down.
Because of many pieces involved, we only stock assembled. Unassembled is
available in larger quantities for the very brave.

S cre e ne d Bo t tom B oard
Designed to be versatile, sturdy, and easy to use, this bottom board
is stand alone. It needs no other bottom boards or add-ons to function. A
1/8” mesh screen covers the entire floor allowing for greatest ventilation and
mite drop possible. 3/4” strips around three sides provide the entrance. A
white vinyl-coated masonite tray slips in the back (or front if you specify) on
a track below the screen to monitor mite drop. By using 1 3/8” stock for two
interlocking frames we have achieved a very strong, durable construction. We
recommend purchasing the assembled units because of the many pieces that
make assembly difficult. Unassembled units are available at higher quantities
and only to the brave. Since it is not necessary to have a mite tray for every
bottom board, they must be ordered separately.
Mite Tray can be ordered
separately or together

Four Compartment Mini-Mating Nuc
A four compartment mating nuc with small frames. This versatile unit
is the same size as 10-frame boxes so that it can be stacked on top of another
colony to pull comb, prevent wax moth, or facilitate other uses. Moveable
dividers make it possible to convert two quarter-compartments into one halfcompartment. Comes with a migratory lid and bottom board constructed
to isolate the quarters from each other. Entrances to accommodate feeders
and reducers for each quarter are on different sides. Feeders must be ordered
separately. As an alternative to the entrance feeders, we offer a double-compartment division board feeder. Made like the full sized feeders. See page 16
for description. Additional frames are also available.

Using Dadant’s wax-working program, we are able to provide an excellent quality crimped and hooked 100% beeswax foundation in the following
sizes and quantities.
We will try shipping your foundation during winter with your woodenware order but only at your request and with the understanding that there
could be some breakage. We will not assume responsibility for replacement.
If you do not want the risk, we can wait till warmer weather to ship your
foundation with the added shipping cost.

The deep inserts are black and the medium and shallow are white, each
with a wax coating. Black is preferred for deeps because it is easier to see
eggs with a black background. White is preferred for honey supers because it
allows you to evaluate honey color better.
We have heard much controversy about the virtues and vices of plastic.
Getting the bees to pull plastic foundation is tough without wax. With a
sufficient wax coating the bees have been known to pull it out even in a nectar
dearth. The inserts we handle come waxed but more can be applied by dipping in wax or with a roller.
Medium inserts can be used for shallow frames but will need to be cut
down. We can do this for $.03 per sheet more. If you purchase these, we
recommend using wedged top bars for the frames to accommodate the thick
cutting edge.

For two reasons. Raise more drones of your favorite genetics to increase
drone population for mating purposes. But perhaps more importantly, in
this age of mites, use it as a tool to reduce mite population. Put these drone
frames—you will always recognize them by their conspicuous off-green
color—into the brood chamber. One per hive is enough. Pull the frame
when the drone brood is capped and replace with another drone frame. Put
the removed frame in the freezer. Repeat the cycle when the current frame is
capped. Mites prefer drone brood and by doing this you will greatly reduce
your mite population. But WARNING! Keep track of your timing. If those
drones start emerging before you pull the frame, you have created a mite farm
instead of a mite eliminator!

Dealerships
Do we have dealerships?
Absolutely. If you would like
to pick up from a dealer close to
you, please contact them to inquire
whether they have what you want
and when it would suit to pick up.
Our dealers will not necessarily
have everything we carry. They are
there to cut down shipping costs
for you, so at least check. If they
cannot provide the item(s) you are
interested in, you may order directly
from us. (Please see at right, a list
of our major dealers across the
nation.) Note: We also have some
smaller dealers. Perhaps we have
a dealer near you that is not listed
here. Please call and let us check out
your area for you.
Can you be a dealer?
Quite likely. Dealerships
widen our customer base, and helps
cut the shipping costs for the end
customer. Our dealership plan has
worked well and we are open to
establishing more. If you are interested in dealing, contact us and we
will evaluate your request in light
of your area and proximity to other
existing dealers. See age 4, call us
for more information, and ask for
our Dealership Policy.
