I have a Ring alarm. It has a battery backup and is powered by AC adaptor, so no need to turn off entire circuits (but no easy silence). All the sensors I have are wireless (not sure if they offer wired).

I would honestly do your box option. Stuff it in there with some pillows and leave it in the shed for a while.

Yeah, we’ve got a bunch of Ring stuff but not the interior alarm so I wasn’t sure how it worked. I suspected it might have a battery backup and, in that case, desperate times -> desperate measures.
