Home monitoring: auto turn off for kids via garage door?

I have been using ST home monitor with few motion sensors and a siren. I manually set it up but I made it to automatically turn off as a result of using a key-code in my smart Schlag lock.

Works great, kids come in, use the code, alarm is off…

problem: kids now want to use bikes, and bikes go in the garage… so if I give them the clicker to enter via the garage… no auto turn off for the Smartthings alarm and now what?

I am not interested in making some crazy smart garage door investment if I can avoid it. sounds like a $30 problem not a >$100 one… I am not really interested in automating the garage door as I am not even parking in the garage.
