As Dillb said drill down at an angle to get you under the floor . On this job i stitch drilled out a 3rd of a brick on a downward angle . If the existing gas meter had been in a recessed box i would have followed suit .
Waw have you really installed another meter box next to dno box! If you have that is shocking imo. Put ur switch fuse in the dno box, if its on. The owners property its theirs not dno so you may add your sw fuse in there! Flobbogasted at that pic!!
So its comon practice to mount isolator armoured and ipbox in a gas meter chamber??
Dont see how its relevant as op has stated db is gunna be 8M away so irrelevant! If you use a cable capable of taking the dno full service fuse isolate it at that rating
It would be poor design to have no discrimination between the DNO fuse and the one you put in. It would be best to leave s gap of one fuse size so take it to 63A. Are you suggesting that it's ok to have two 100A fuses in line? Yes it might well protect the cable but it's not a great idea.
its not irrelevant.

Excuse me? So your suggesting using dno full capacity in one post then slating use of it in another.? Why is it bad practice fusing your submain at same as dno cutout on a capable ccc cable,? Can u explain?
You never heard of discrimination?
How would you go about achieving full discrimination between the DNO fuse and the one in the switch fuse then on a domestic setup such as the OP's? IMO it will be nigh on impossible.
might be an idea to use a MCCB instead of a sw.fuse. cost permitting. this should ensure the MCCB tripping before the \DNO fuse. discuss?
