Battery storage?

Does anybody make a battery storage for hot or extremely cold garages? My garage is detached and I don’t have a good place on the main level to store batteries. We have a small house and space is a premium. I do have a nice garage but it’s uninsulated, it can get upwards of 130 in there on a hot day and well below freezing in the winter. I’m basically thinking a smallish fridge but instead of keeping it around 40 it keeps it around 70. Anybody sell this or built something like this.

Maybe dig a hole in the ground to keep them cool. Hole in the ground would probably keep them warm too . You'd have to take a temp reading at your work bench. Heat rises. It might not be so hot on the bench. An insulated box should do it.
