Install the PA‐220 Firewall on a Wall
Install a PA‐220 firewall on a drywall or plywood wall using the wall‐mount kit as describe in the following
procedure.
Install the PA‐220 Firewall on a Wall
Step 1 If the four rubber pads are installed on the bottom of the firewall, remove them.
Step 2 Mark three locations on the wall that line up with the wall mount holes on the bottom of the firewall.
To ensure the wall mount screws line up with the firewall mount holes, use the PA‐220 Quick Start
Guide that ships with the firewall as a template. If you do not have a copy of the Quick Start,
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 3 Use a #1 Phillips‐head screwdriver to install the appropriate screws into each of the three 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 two 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.
