Best way to wall-mount distribution boxes?

[jayc89]

I have a couple of these - https://www.bpcventilation.com/90mm-10-point-re-dis-box connected loosely at the minute but I want to tidy them up and, ideally, get them mounted to the wall (18mm ply)

 

How do people typically do this? They're not particularly heavy, can I screw a batten beneath them (into the wall) to take the majority of the weight and glue a couple of angle brackets to the boxes to secure them?

They have lugs, so globs of adhesive behind the box itself and some 6x40mm screws into the stud work did the trick.

I just used metal straps bent around them and screwed to the joists
