Mounting ssBrewtech econtroller

Has anyone mounted this a controller on the wall? On the back there are 3 T-rail slots but I haven’t been able to find any T-rails or T-slot nuts that fit. I contacted SS, and they said they haven’t made those mounting parts yet.
Thanks

For some reason I’ve never been able to post a picture on this forum. But this is the link to their website and it shows it pretty clearly. Especially if you go to the 360° view. Any help would be great.
Thanks

I looked at a controller and it appears a normal T-head bolt would work. So, you measure the vertical centers of the rails and decide what horizontal spacing you want and drill those holes in a piece of stainless, wood, plastic, whatever you choose. Then slide your bolts into the slot and put the bolts into the pre-drilled holes. Add a washer, lock washer and a nut and you’re good to go.
This is what you need. However, confirm the size.

Hope this helps!
Edit - these bolts can be found at your local Home Depot or Menards or Lowe’s. The link is just to show what they look like.

You can use EZ Ancors in a stud, then use a screw at the proper depth to engage the T rail

FYI for anyone who has the controller, ssbrewtech just came out with the hanging mount equipment on their website. Bought it and it works perfectly.
