    As a beekeeper myself, I'd just say "no, thank you." Oh, it will work for a while, but then it won't. Keeping bees involves frequent checking of the combs/hives which will be very hard in this setup. (Checking for beetles, moths, queen activity, etc.) Also, hives often need to be either expanded or contracted (add or remove boxes). And honey extraction in this setup will be very destructive to the hive. Overall, working with the hive involves lots of time with bees freely buzzing around which he's not setup for at all. Oh, and don't forget the average temperature inside a hive is around 95 degrees F (35C), they won't like your air conditioner.
