In this process, you attach a track above and below your window or door. Then, slip the panels into the top track and secure them at the bottom with screws and wing nuts. When removed for storage, the tracks can stay on the wall, while panels, screws, and wing nuts are stored together for easy reinstallation. This is the quickest and easiest way to install shutters when a storm approaches.
Price: $3.50 per linear foot.

BOCA VS. NON-BOCA HARDWARE
BOCA (also known as the National Building Code and International Building Code) refers to a set of standards established by the Building Officials Code Administration. BOCA hardware standards for hurricane shutters require no more than a 6" space between hardware, while non-BOCA hardware can be installed with up to a 12" space. There is no other difference between the hardware.
To determine whether you need BOCA or Non-BOCA hardware, consult your county's building code for Shutter Protection. Your hardware must comply with local regulations and be capable of withstanding the specific wind pressures outlined for your area.
