Since you’re looking to adding temperature support, how about motion detection like the HC-SR501? Use it in conjunction with auto door closing after X amount of minutes of no detection. Sometimes people work in their garage with it open so an idle open garage will not necessarily close if it has detected motion. You can still send the notification after X amount of minutes that the garage door is open but did not close due to motion.
