Living in Duncan means spending a lot of time moving between indoors and out. The Cowichan Valley's warm summers and mild shoulder seasons make it easy to keep doors and windows open for months at a stretch. But open doors mean bugs, dust, and whatever else decides to wander in.
Retractable screens solve that problem without changing the look of your home. They pull across when you need them and disappear into a slim housing when you don't. No bulky permanent screen doors blocking your view or your doorway.
Perfect for Duncan's Indoor-Outdoor Lifestyle
Duncan homeowners tend to use their doors differently than people in most places. When it's warm in the Cowichan Valley, doors stay open. The breeze comes through, you're in and out to the patio or garden, and the line between inside and outside gets blurry.
Retractable screens fit that lifestyle because they don't get in the way of the flow. A fixed screen door creates a barrier you're constantly opening and closing. A retractable screen just sits there quietly doing its job, letting air through while keeping insects out. When you want the door fully open with no screen at all, one pull and it's gone.
For homes near the Cowichan River or backing onto wooded areas, this is especially practical. The bug pressure in those spots during summer evenings is real, and a retractable screen on your main patio door makes a noticeable difference.
