Honestly, I wouldn't waste my money. Unless we have even more major climate changes, the winds here just don't get strong enough to need shutters. The 3-M film should be sufficient protection if you truly feel the need to do anything. Shutters won't protect you from a tornado and the risk is much higher for that than hurricane force winds here.
