Self-tapping screws up to 1 in. (25 mm) long can be in-
stalled through the nailing tab and outer 1-3/4 in. (45 mm)
edges of the factory-installed non-combustible board to

combustible board. See Figure 13.3.
Do not drill or install screws which may penetrate the low-
er cover panel as this will restrict required access to the
glass, battery-back-up, and remote receiver. See Figure
