Bug Screens, Window Screens & Storm Doors in Lions Bay
Lions Bay is one of BC's most stunning small communities — 1,390 people tucked into the steep eastern shore of Howe Sound between the ocean and the Lions peaks. It's also bear country, cougar territory, and home to some of the most persistent summer insects in the Sea-to-Sky corridor. Brackendale Bug Screens provides custom window screens, bug screens, retractable screen doors, and storm doors built to handle Lions Bay's unique combination of wildlife, weather, and mountainside living. We're the only dedicated screen service on Highway 99 — and Lions Bay is on every single one of our service runs.
Why Lions Bay Needs Screens
Lions Bay earned official Bear Smart Community status in 2011, and for good reason — bears, cougars, and deer regularly move through residential areas. That means your window screens and screen doors need to be tough. Our pet screens use heavy-duty TuffScreen mesh that resists animal contact, and our Wizard SlideView heavy-duty sliding screen doors feature reinforced metal corners that won't buckle under pressure.
The village's steep terrain between Kelvin Grove, the upper village, and Brunswick Beach creates sheltered pockets where mosquitoes and blackflies breed aggressively in the creek systems — Magnesia Creek, Harvey Creek, and Brunswick Creek all produce significant insect populations from late April through September. Bug screens are non-negotiable for comfortable living in Lions Bay.
Lions Bay homes range from 1960s character cottages to modern mountain builds with dramatic glass walls facing Howe Sound. The older homes often need custom window screens because nothing off-the-shelf fits their original frames. The newer builds need large-opening retractable screen doors and storm doors that can handle the winds funnelling up from the Sound. We provide wicket window screens for casement windows, sliding screen doors for horizontal sliders, and Alumico storm doors for exposed entries.

We drive through Lions Bay on Highway 99 every time we service anywhere between Vancouver and Squamish — it's 30 minutes south of our shop. We've screened homes on Oceanview Road with their full Howe Sound exposure, character homes on Centre Road, and newer builds up on Sunset Drive. We know that the upper village gets different wind patterns than the waterfront at Kelvin Grove Beach. And we know Lions Bay residents care about their community and their wildlife — which is why our screen restoration and repair-first philosophy resonates here. Fix what works, replace only what's broken.
