ABSTRACT:
A storm shutter installation includes a pair of supports attached above and below a window to be protected. The supports include a pair of parallel channels to receive a pair of plywood panels. One or more removable brace are provided to support the plywood panels. The braces typically run parallel to the short dimension of the panels thereby reducing the unsupported long dimension of the panels. The braces are clamped together, thereby clamping the panels together and clamping the panels to the supports. The resulting storm shutter installation is substantially stronger, perhaps as much as an order of magnitude, than single plywood panel installations.
