Putting a freezer in part of our outhouse (one designed for outbuildings). The room is 87 x 138cm.

The fuseboxe for the outhouse and shed is located in the same room. The fridge will need some sort of extension cable to reach the double socket. One socket is used for the electric heater in the outdoor loo next door.

A few questions:

1. Electrics: As the freezer isn't constantly visible and we don't want something to happen to it is there anything is should be aware of re an extension cable? And would it be easier/preferable to make my own? I'd assumed I would want a fused extension lead multiplug.
   
2. Counter top. Adding the freezer removes space, so I'd like to regain some above. I don't want to build perminant shelves, but a faily perminant work counter top that could take a decent weight if it was layen with drinks. What's the most economical way to do this, considering the limits of the lockdown? Also does there need to be some sort of venting at the back?
   
   

Cheers.
