Garage build - what to include

[taylormj4]

Thanks again, great suggestions.

Burgular alarm separate sounds more manageable. I'll go with that.

Smoke/heat alarm is a great one - hadn't thought of that.

On the rubber floor tiles. I like the sound of these as kneeling or lying on a cold floor isn't fun but I can see that the epoxy gives a cleaner finish and easier to clean up oil / spills etc. Do you just sit the tiles on top of the epoxy.
Have seen rubber matting (large sheets) too. Anyone used those ?

Insulation and heating first on the list just finished mine thermo tiles on the floor before the base was laid, brick walls air gap thermolite blocks air gap insulated plasterboard = snug
Ikea kitchen cabinets around the walls = good and cheap
Kitchen work surface 4.5m for the bench
Loads of lighting.
