Default proper storage of all those fuel cans

With a nod to the Propane thread, I am good with the 20lb propane
tanks and never bring them inside- but in my well ventilated and
unheated, but electrified garage I have;
in the winter a car with 12gallons of gasoline-
a generator with 10gallons of gas
a 5gallon and two 2 gallon cans of gas
two 1 gallon cans of mixed gas [40:1 & 50:1]
5 gallons of kerosene
5 gallons of diesel

I have toyed with the idea of a dedicated fuel shed/box out back but
it isn't something I've ever gotten around to. What are some
thoughts on safe storage of all this crap?

mine just sit around various parts of the yard. Usually the last place
they were used.
