stuff snipped

As long as
the installation is done correctly, there isn't anything wrong
with having a gas connection available outside. You could plug
a gas grill in there using it's flex hose and it's A OK.

Do they come with key locks? I'd be nervous about a gas line that was
accessible by juvenile delinqents from the outside. While I expect it's too
technical for most of them, a few special rugrats do learn how to hotwire
cars and perform other "technical" criminal tasks. (-:
