My concern though is
the heat and cold on the equipment. If the garage is insulated okay
with a sturdy garage door, I'd think that should work, right?

Ham equipment made in the last 50 or 100 years has specs that describe
how hot or cold it can be during operation and during non-operation.

Equipment made in the last 20 or 30 years should have these specs
available (as well as much of the older equipment).
