I have an economics question for you---WHAT are you doing to innovate a product that is low cost and easy to use and doesn't trap you in a fire? The answer....NOTHING! Why not? Well, no one is paying you and that is all you are---a lobbyist.
It doesn't matter what the OIR form says IF customers cannot afford, lift or easily install your "recommended" shutter protection system. That's why the most common shutter system is plywood.
So, enjoy creating the form. Getting customers to use your industry's products is the challenge you're ignoring. By the way, have you ever thought about offering a "2-fer" with your shutters? You could offer a great value....buy some egress-denying shutters and get body bags for the whole family! You could have the body bags imprinted with the FBC number, so the Coroner knows what bags go with what egress-denying shutter.
