I think I’m going to put in double or triple stands made from 4x2 fence rail secured either to concrete blocks with a concrete bolt or to driven 4” posts.
Then screw the floors to it, place the brood box on top and fix to the floor with security screws.
Even if the thief has the equipment to remove the security screws he will still have to lift the brood box off the floor to get to those screws.
Either that or take the individual frames which would be laborious and likely to need lighting to do which could alert the public on adjacent road.
