Help combination lock for the power button

A problem everyone's had a thousand times <

You stick your phone in your pocket with the screen locked, and something else in there; a lighter, a set of keys etc, presses the power/ volume button and either reboots the phone or accidentally puts it on silent.
You miss calls for hours before you realize the phone is off :)

so how do you circumvent this?
Is there a way to set a combination lock on the hardware keys to where they won't respond until you press them in a specific way?
Like double-tap Power + volume down + vol up?
Or something like that.
 
I'm not sure tbh. This doesn't help you but on my phone, when the proximity sensor is covered it disables the buttons. An app that can do that would be perfect
