Installing the Enclosure
There are two options for mounting the RLA Controller:
Flush Mounted and Surface Mounted.
CAUTION: Provided mounting hardware must be used.
Flush Mounted
Prior to installation:

The Enclosure mounts between two standard
spaced wall studs within a minimum 4” wall cavity.
(Enclosure Dimension – 16”x14”x4”)

If stud spacing is greater than that required for the
mounting of the controller, add studs to ensure a secured mounting.

The studs should be facing to facilitate securing the Enclosure.

Predetermine wall finish so that the face lip of the enclosure
aligns flush with the finished wall surface.
To install:
1.
Using the self-starting screws (13), mount the flanges at
each side and at the top and bottom of the enclosure.
2. Attach the enclosure to the wall studs with field-provided
sheet metal screws per the drawing.
3. Level the enclosure.
Notes:

When the Door Panel is mounted onto the Enclosure,
it should protrude beyond the wall surface about ¼”.
Care should be taken at installation time to ensure that this
occurs.

A Flush Mounting Trim Flange is provided with each flush mounted unit.
Separate installation instructions and hardware are included with this flange.

Semi and Flush Trim add 3.5 inches to both Height and Width wall surface
dimensions.

It is the responsibility of the installer to verify finish wall dimensions.
Clearance around Enclosure:
Care should be taken to allow ½” clearance
from wall framing and sheet-rock or other wall
surface material around the outer surface of the
unit to permit the trim to be properly installed.
Surface Mounted
Prior to installation:

Wall finishes should be complete.

The wall cavity must have sufficient backing or support to
ensure a firm mounting of the enclosure to the wall surface.
To install:
1.
Secure the surface mount flanges to the back of the
enclosure with the self-starting screws (13).
2. Use the field-provided screws to attach the enclosure by the
flanges to the wall surface.
3. Level the enclosure.
