This may be a silly question but I ain't skeered. 
On the top box of a Langstroth hive should there be space for bees to crawl across the top of the frames? Or is using a board flush with the frame tops in the box (i.e., bees cannot crawl on top of the frames) OK? On other hive box interfaces there is space, but I'm wondering if the girls would care that there's no space on the top box.
This is a hive without a top entrance (the only entrance is on bottom board).
