Family Values and Commitment
Innovation tailored for Hawaii is the foundation of our company.
In 1990, Coastal Windows first introduced its patented new technology in vinyl windows to the Aloha State.
The Pioneer
Our business idea came to founders Kurt and Marie Winner while shopping for new windows for their part-time oceanfront residence in Poipu, Kauai. They were surprised to discover that vinyl windows were hard to find in Hawaii and felt there would be a demand for more resilient and specially engineered windows and doors to withstand the harsh tropical temperatures and salt air corrosion.
An engineer by profession, Kurt Winner first recognized a future in vinyl for use as a building material in the early 1970s. As a pioneer in the industry, he helped to lay the foundation for the vinyl window industry that we know today.
A New System
With nearly 40 years of experience in the windows industry, Kurt quickly got to work designing and engineering a vinyl window system that would not corrode, warp, swell, or be compromised by termites.
A Family Matter
He brought his family, his vinyl window expertise, and his innovative patented designs to Hawaii. The Winner family hung a sign and opened for business at the Waipio Gentry Business Park in 1990, and as they say, from there, the rest is history.
Looking Towards the Future
At Coastal Windows, we are a proud, second-generation, family-owned and -operated business. Kurt and Marie’s son, Bob Barrett, is the current president of Coastal Windows and leads alongside his wife, Pam Barrett, who serves as marketing director. The Coastal Windows ohana also includes the husband-and-wife team of Clint Tirpak, vice president, and his wife Anita, accounting manager. Clint and Bob have been best friends since they were 12 years old. While Bob followed his dad’s footsteps into window manufacturing, Clint followed his dad in construction, building new homes. The two friends eventually combined forces, starting their own window replacement business in the early 1980s.
All in Good Company
Since the beginning, Coastal Windows, Inc. has been custom-designing, manufacturing, and installing beautiful and high-quality windows and doors for family homes and a wide array of commercial properties throughout Hawaii. Our business has grown from a 5,000 square foot space to a 30,000 square foot facility where the raw material is cut, welded, and assembled with premium-quality parts before it is delivered and installed.
We don’t cut corners. We believe in expert craftsmanship that will last for years to come. We offer a diverse line of window and door selections, including jalousie, awning, casement, double-hung, sliding, bay, and bow windows. Our products grace iconic Hawaiian properties such as the Ala Moana Hotel and the Hotel Hana-Maui (NKA Travaasa Hana), just to name a few, as well as the beloved homes of residents throughout Hawaii.
