Install the PA-400 Series Firewall on a Wall
Install a PA-400 Series firewall on a drywall or plywood wall using the wall-mount kit as described in the
following procedure.
STEP 1 |
Mark the locations on the wall that line up with the wall mount holes on the bottom of the
firewall.
(
PA-440, PA-450, and PA-460
) Mark three wall mount hole locations.
(
PA-410
) Mark four wall mount hole locations.
To ensure the wall mount screws line up with the firewall mount holes, use the PA-400
Series Quick Start Guide or the PA-410 Firewall Quick Start Guide that ships with the
firewall as a template. If you do not have a copy of the Quick Start Guide, download and
print it. When printing, select landscape and actual size in the print options to ensure the
screw hole markers line up correctly.
Ensure there are no building services (water, gas, or wiring) behind the wall where you
intend to install the firewall.
STEP 2 |
Use a #1 Phillips-head screwdriver to install the appropriate screws into each of the three or
four marked locations:
•
Drywall
—Press a drywall anchor slightly into the center of a template mark. Then use your
screwdriver to apply pressure while turning the anchor clockwise until the surface of the anchor is
flush with the wall. After the drywall anchor is secure, install a 1.25” anchor screw into the anchor
until the bottom of the screw head protrudes 1/4” (.6cm) from the wall. Repeat this step for the other
screw locations unless either is located over wood, in which case, use a .75” wood screw instead of a
drywall anchor and screw.
•
Plywood wall
—Use your screwdriver to insert a .75” wood screw into the center of each template
mark that is located over wood until the bottom of the screw heads protrude 1/4” (.6cm) from the
wall.
STEP 3 |
Align the holes on the bottom of the firewall with the screws on the wall and hang the firewall
on the screws. Make sure the firewall is securely connected to each of the screws before you
let go.
