Chris...

Do you have a website/drawings or anything related to this long deep hive?
I've found nothing like it in Canada. Do you have the name of the UK
manufacturer?

Alternatively think laterally.  Go for a long deep hive.  The Dartington
model has 21 brood frames 14 x 12 and takes 4 half size supers.  It is on a
stand so the top bars are about waist high (depending how tall you are).
The
supers when full weigh no more than 16 pounds.  The latest version has open
mesh floors.  A UK manufacturer now produces it in kit form.
