What is the best option for hurricane shutters in South florida?

As a new resident, I want to fit the home with appropriate hurricane shutters. Do I need to do the south and west facing windows, or all of them. Which product will work best, at a fair cost? I see the roll down as very nice (but expensive), the aluminum panels to be placed into brackets and bolted together seem to be the least expensive. The others should be considered, but I was hoping for some input from those who have shutters and are able to give an experienced opinion.

    ALL windows is the preferred option, and a little ingenuity + Aluminum panels would work quite well.

    It's not hard to figure out a simple way to hang them, even if you simply screw them over the windows..
