The 10"x10"x6" metal enclosure I bought for my brewing controller build did not come with any inner panel. I was not entirely sure if it's fine mounting the interior parts to the back of the enclosure -- but if I wanted to get an inner panel, is okay to buy a simple 8x8 sheet of metal (steel, aluminum, etc.) and drill 4 holes to make my own?
The specific enclosure I bought at Zoro Tools is Wiegmann model SC101006:

I didn't have the best luck finding metal sheets online, but ending up finding a few on eBay:

Wiegmann makes the box and also has inner panels (mounting plates) on Zoro Tools but nothing within my size. They have one that is 6.88x6.88 but those are the distance between the center of the mounting holes on mine, and I fear that one won't be big enough. The 8x8 distance is about maximum that I can easily fit if I were to buy a separate metal sheet.
This is probably an easier question but I was uncertain.
