That's a good idea, but I am now wondering if it is wise to bolt
unearthed metal catches to a plastic box containing electrical

Everything is touch safe, and would be fine to be exposed, if
indoors.

That will depend on clearance distances inside the box. If you're
concerned you could create a cover over the fixings inside the box
