We have a bungalow with an attached 1-car garage. The room adjacent to the long wall of the garage is a utility lobby, a bit like a hallway. We would like to put a door through from this lobby into the garage. The garage floor is lower than the lobby floor, so one or maybe two steps down would be needed in the garage. For this reason it would be best to position the connecting door as far towards the back of the garage as possible, so that these steps don't get in the way of the car when it's in the garage. Unfortunately the gas supply and meter are exactly at this position on the garage wall, with the gas main emerging from the solid garage floor at this point, and the main gas tap some three feet up the wall, with the meter above it.
Moving the meter itself would be relatively straightforward, but the incoming supply pipe? The gas supply would have to be turned off somewhere, in order to disconnect and re-route the incoming pipe, but how/where would this be done? I'm not aware of any gas tap elsewhere, for example out in the road. Only the main water stop-c*ck is out there AFAIK.
Definitely not a DIY project, BTW, in case anyone is thinking I was going to attempt it myself!
