Added hand holds work well as far as lifting goes, but  be really sure
that they are attached well.  I have bought some used equipment with hand
holds and have removed them because of the previous experience of  having
them come  loose while trying to lift a full super of honey.  Those that
I had difficulty removing usually had five 1 1/4" nails from the outside
and five from the inside.  The fact that they project from the box is not
a problem as long as one uses a telescoping cover - the cover projects
just as far.
