Thanks for the reply
Would internal fans help if inside the box, only running when the gen is on, the access door from the outside will be open anyway when its running.
PS I'll go into more detail when answering the other replies

Thanks for that tip, Would spray foam work when sealing around the pipes that go through the timber wall?
The shed will be made out of- "outside walls" shiplap timber, rendering mesh, 3x2 studs, insulation, rendering mesh and a 18mm board finish, with a 4" wide metal strapping (top to bottom) to keep the timber in place over the shiplap, & hopefully the thiefs getting in (I have tried this method on the other sheds and so far has worked and on one occasion it has made it extremely hard work for them to get break in, with little damage to the shed, except to there chainsaw they used and it clogged the chain up when it hit the redering mesh, I did get a chainsaw for my trouble tho)
I was thinking about the vibration on the wooden floor, would putting some or more heavy duty rubber dampeners work on the underside of the gen. frame as well as the dampeners already on the gen. ?

I did come across some info regarding sound dampening on youtube, If I raise the box lid at an angle inside the shed it will help reduce the sound waves boucing of the walls.
Has anybody heard anything about it or tried this method.
cheers
Also regarding the access door to the gen. from the outside to start it.
The heavy gauge metal cage I have got will have some holes cut out to access the plug sockets etc. but enough cage to stop it from being pulled out through the wall, it will also be secured to the footings. Also the hole for the door will have an angle iron surround around the door opening and a metal shutter built inside the wall, to block the hole up when not in use, just incase.
cheers
