Hey all - Ive got a fully protected home, but my garage, which is detached from the house, is unprotected.

The base system in my home is wireless, so I can protect the garage without much work, but I dont know what to put in there.

The big garage door is pretty secure, but the walk through door between my garage and my backyard is not. I can put a motion sensor inside the garage, but should we open the door to park, it will set the alarm off. I could alarm the walk through door with a traditional sensor, which would be simple, but again, it will set off the alarm as the keypad is in the house and I do not want to put a keypad in the garage itself.

Any bright ideas? Im less concerned with the cars than I am tools and spray washers and stuff.

What do you guys do to protect a detached garage?
 
my home alarm came with an optional keyfob.. maybe that is an option along with a motion sensor
 
I have alarm & motion sensor. I tested it and the patrol unit came pretty quick:D also, i have a firearm in almost every room.... :D I think this would be sufficient for now.
