Yeah the heat/cold was the biggest worry. I ended up going with some pretty expensive insulation that's designed to stop heat getting in during Summer, and hold heat in during winter - fingers crossed it'll be ok. Worst case scenario is that I'll have to get a small aircon unit for summer, not that it gets all that hot here in the soggy UK!
I'l add some more pics to the thread once I get it done. I'm just waiting for the electrician to wire the room up at the moment.
Thankfully we're in quite a nice neighbourhood, however I've got an alarm system going in with 2 PIR sensors, and magnetic sensors on the door and window - it's hooked up to an alarm outside and in the house, and sends a SMS to 3 phones if it's triggered. I've also got a nightvision webcam which will be hooked up in the corner running on a Raspberry Pi dev board. It'll then stream the video feed to a network drive I've got in the house, and should be able to store a good 50 hours of footage.
I've also got another lock going on the door - it does have a standard lock but I'll be adding a second 'dead-bolt' style lock.
Hopefully I'll never need all this but you never know!!
