All Seasons Windows & Doors

Following in the footsteps of his father, Frank Akins, Bill Akins founded All Seasons Window & Door Manufacturing in 1979 in two rooms of a school gymnasium in the Fredonia Community just outside of Kilgore. Bill has been around the window manufacturing since the age of eight. The humble beginning of All Seasons Window & Door Manufacturing included five employees and Bill accomplishing every phase of work from selling, to manufacturing, installation, and delivery. 1983 brought a new 33,000 square foot building on 10 acres in Longview’s Southwest Industrial Park. All Seasons Window & Door expanded its original product line of storm windows and replacement windows and increased the staff to 20. By 1985, a line of prime residential windows was added, as well as a premium line of insulated glass. In 1989 the company increased its window line to include heavy commercial hotel windows, and the following year added entry doors. A major expansion in 1993 increased the size of the building to 55,000 square feet for manufacturing and office space and one of the South’s largest window and door showrooms. All Seasons continued to grow to 50 employees supplying residential windows in East Texas and Northwestern Louisiana and heavy commercial windows in 20 states.
