Can you convert a light fixture in the ceiling to an 3 prong outlet for a garage opener?
My initial reaction was "absolutely not". The lighting circuit will only have a maximum feed capacity of 3 to 5 amps. For a garage opener this will be more than that. If you did manage to convert it, then you would almost certainly blow the circuit breaker and at the worst you may cause the wiring to set on fire due to overload. Basically, it's all about the maximum current that the opener draws when operating. I'm sure that it would exceed the capacity of the circuit. Additional question...I saw something at Home Depot that screws into a light socket and provides an electrical outlet. Would this work? I did a little research and found garage door openers ranging from 1.6 to 6 amps. Seems a little tight, but could it work?
What else can I help you with?
How do you hook up a light fixture with two power sources... Could a garage light be fed by a light switch and the garage door opener if they are are on the same leg?
A garage door opener and the garage light can be on the same circuit. The garage door opener has to be up stream (non switched 120 volt source) from the light switch and the garage light.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

depending on the make and model it is from $50 to $200 ...... plus a whole range of other factors. Is it a one-piece or sectional door? Metal or wood (if it is a wood door with windows, the point at which the door bracket is attached must be reinforced)? Is there power available on the ceiling? If you have a bedroom above the garage, getting power to the right spot requires a qualified electrician = multo bucks. Just attaching extension cords to wall outlets is out of code in most major cities. For a single door opener installation, the installation cost will run anywhere from $150 to $300+.
