Made in the USA by Pierce Beekeeping Equipment
The Premium Frame Grip is manufactured in the USA by Pierce Beekeeping Equipment, a specialist manufacturer of beekeeping equipment. The tool is engineered for precision and durability, making it suitable for regular frame handling during hive inspections.
It also comes with a 2-year warranty, providing additional confidence for beekeepers who want a dependable frame-handling tool.
Durable Cast Aluminium Construction
The frame grip is made from high-quality cast aluminium, providing a strong yet relatively lightweight construction. Stainless steel nuts and bolts, together with steel springs, provide durable components for the moving mechanism.
This combination is designed to withstand repeated use when lifting frames and working around wax and propolis buildup.
Guided Pivot Point and Dual Springs
The tool features a guided pivot point with dual springs that helps provide a smooth open-and-close movement. The spring-assisted mechanism makes it easier to grip frames securely and release them when needed.
The easy-grip handle also gives you better control while working through the hive.

Makes Difficult Frames Easier to Remove
Frames can become difficult to lift when wax or propolis causes them to stick together. The Premium Frame Grip is designed to work alongside a hive tool: first use the hive tool to slightly separate the frames, then use the frame grip to lift and remove the frame.
This provides a more controlled way to handle frames while helping reduce unnecessary pressure on the comb.
Designed for Careful Frame Handling
A secure grip can make it easier to manoeuvre a frame during inspection, especially when the frame is heavy with bees, brood or honey. The precision jaws are designed to hold the frame securely while allowing you to maintain control as it is lifted.
This makes the tool particularly useful when working through multiple frames during a hive inspection.
Comfortable and Easy to Use
The easy-grip handle and guided mechanism are designed to make repeated frame handling more comfortable. The spring-assisted action also helps reduce the effort required to open and close the grip.
Its compact design makes it easy to keep with your other hive inspection equipment.
