I bought a house a 5 years ago that has the pegs for storm shutters, but no shutters. See below. My previous house was all brick and we used plylocks. How should I go about boarding this up for a hurricane? The peg is threaded, so I'm thinking that a hole in the plywood slid over the pegs, secured with a nut and washer. Maybe there's a product out there that will do the job better( faster? )
Are these hanger bolts?

Washer and nuts is the way to go. you can use wing nuts if you want. If I was doing it, I would measure and drill the top 2 holes in plywood. Hang it in place and then measure and drill bottom 2. you should be able to do it while its hanging. The drill hole doesnt have to be super snug give your self some room for error.
