Atria DIY
The Atria system, integrated into your own structure
Atria DIY is a build-it-into-place configuration of the Atria system, designed for projects where the Atria hive system is mounted into a custom-built structure rather than housed in a standalone beehouse.
It is designed for projects where flexibility matters, allowing the Atria hive system to be integrated into a wide range of architectural, site, and access contexts.
Priced from $1950 CAD/hive.
At a Glance
Atria DIY delivers the same internal hive logic, inspection workflow, and ergonomics as other Atria configurations, while allowing builders and partners to design the surrounding structure themselves.
This approach supports custom installations without changing how hives are accessed or how colonies are managed.
Best For
Experienced builders and beekeepers who are comfortable planning and executing custom installations. Well suited to projects where the enclosure must be designed around specific site, access, or program needs rather than a fixed or mobile beehouse.
Uses
Atria DIY supports a wide range of applications, including larger multi-hive installations, mobile or temporary beekeeping setups, and integration into existing barns, sheds, or purpose-built structures. It is also well suited to education, research, and demonstration projects where layout and access requirements vary.
Features
Atria DIY uses the same core hive system found across all Atria configurations, while shifting responsibility for the surrounding structure to the builder. The internal hive components arrive fully assembled with appropriately sized mounting panels, allowing the system to be secured into a load-bearing wall or frame designed by the customer.
Specs
Atria DIY is available in three-chamber and four-chamber hive configurations. Three-chamber hives may be installed in banks of one or two, while four-chamber hives may be installed in banks of one, two, or four. Core dimensional requirements depend on configuration and bank size.Built to Order in Canada
