Who We Are

At Frontline Tint, our journey began with a shared passion for quality window tint and a commitment to serving our community with honesty and care. Founded by Nick McKinney in Shorewood, Illinois, our family-run business was built on a simple mission: to provide dependable, high-quality window tint solutions with integrity, craftsmanship, and a personal touch. What started as a modest local venture has quickly grown into a trusted name for residential and commercial tinting throughout the Chicagoland area.

We believe great service is about more than just the finished product — it’s about building lasting relationships with our customers through transparency, reliability, and genuine care. Those values continue to guide everything we do as we grow, helping us create comfortable, stylish, and protected spaces for the communities we proudly serve.

Meet The Founder

Nick McKinney

Owner-operator of Frontline Tint, I’ve built this business on the same values that have guided me throughout my life: discipline, integrity, and service. As a former college baseball player and current firefighter/paramedic, I understand the importance of hard work, attention to detail, and earning people’s trust through consistency and professionalism.

Beyond the business, I’m also a proud husband and father, and family is at the center of everything I do. That perspective shapes how I treat every customer — with honesty, respect, and a commitment to doing the job right the first time. I know your home or business is more than just a building, it’s a space worth protecting, and we treat it that way.

I take tremendous pride in my craftsmanship and continually invest in sharpening my skills to stay at the forefront of the window film industry. Through Frontline Tint, my goal is simple: deliver premium-quality work, provide an honest service and a professional experience, lasting solutions, and set a higher standard for the industry.
