I'm not in favour of bringing the mains supply into the box. My dc power supplies all have isolated outputs, ie neither go to the psu frame/ground, so mains earth is separate from rf earth. I know it's done on some big t/rx, but I'm not in favour.
Even with a small mains psu, you might have mechanical issues fixing to panels not expected to hold weight, eg leverage against small screws into pcbs.
