I was going to post a "For Sale" ad using your picture, but realized that would not be appropriate even if in jest. I'm going to hell, yes, I know that.

I hope the find it AND the SOB who stole it.

Rural area closed garage behind 2 locked gates and only about 25 feet from my bedroom door. I was likely followed the last time I had it on a trailer coming home from deer camp. They had to plan this and watch me for a while. I'm sure had I walked out on them I would not of had time to react. I guess it is time to upgrade my security again.

A driveway alert is almost a no-brainer. You should have one for the driveway area and an extra sensor for the garage area. This one is inexpensive and works very well - I've tested it at 1/4 mile away, so it'll work for long driveways too.

Sorry this closing the barn door a bit late. Driveway Alert

Did they cut locks to gain entry? Do you know if they drove a vehicle in? Do you have any dogs that would alert?

In the situation you describe, where it looks like they planned and were well organized, it would not be surprising if they were not armed as well. Good idea to keep this in mind, as well as the laws in your state, in planning your response to this type of thing. My background is in electronics (Navy) and law enforcement (Oakland CA, PD), so I tend toward being brave, armed, and stupid (grin). I live in a small up-scale gated community. The bad guy in the short video, linked below, came in on foot. He's shown trying my back garage door. Next he goes out of camera frame and opens a side RV garage door, which I intentionally leave unlocked. There's an alarm system covering all openings, so as soon as he starts to open the door, the nearby keypad is beeping - he fled at that point. The door in question also has a steel cable loop over the doorknob on the inside, the the door only opens a few inches - sort of a "trap" that allows the bad guy to trip the alarm without damaging anything. In my experience, most bad guys will check things to see if you screwed up and left them an easy way to get in.
