Universal garage door openers work because they have a row of switches that must be in the correct sequence to open a specific garage door. To open a door with an unknown sequence the person using the opener would have to manually try sequences until they found the correct one. This would take a fairly long time.
How to install a garage door opener?
A garage door opener has become an indispensable appliance that is normally found in every modern home. Not only does it add convenience to the house, but most garage door openers have a security component that helps make the home more safe. For those homeowners who do not have a garage door opener, it is a relatively easy installation for a homeowner with even a modicum of mechanical ability. The first step in installing a garage door opener is deciding which type of garage door opener is right for the homeowner’s needs. Once that decision has been made and the garage door opener has been purchased, the next step is to open the garage door opener and check to make sure the garage door opener is complete. The next step is for the installer to gather any tools that will be needed for the installation. Typically, a Phillips head screwdriver, a flat-head screwdriver, a drill, a hammer, a ruler, and a leveler. Most garage door openers require that the first step in installing the garage door opener is assembling the rail. Once the rail has been assembled, the next step is inserting it into the power source. The slider/traveler unit must then be connected to the rail, and then the idler pulley must be affixed to the opposite side of the rail. The chain must now be attached to the traveler. Once the chain is attached to the traveler, the chain is then snaked around the drive wheels of the power unit and looped around the idler pulley back to the traveler. The chain ends are then attached with a retaining clip. The header must then be mounted at the height recommended by the manufacturer, and then attached to the idler assembly. The final step for attaching the garage door assembly is to attach the power unit to the garage ceiling joists. It is now time to make sure the door clears the manual unit. This is usually done by manually lifting the door to ensure it is able to clear the power unit. If it does not clear, the assembly must be adjusted. If it does clear the assembly, the sensors can then be installed. Once the sensors have been installed, it is time to test the door. Once the door has been successfully operated, the installation is complete.

Garage Door Opener Programming - UniversalImportant: Do not use the garage door opener (GDO) with any garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse safety feature. This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982.Ensure that people and objects are clear of the garage door while performing programming operations.Programming the GDO for Rolling Code ReceiversThis procedure will learn a rolling code garage door opener to the GDO transmitter. The learn process must be completed within 30 seconds.Press the two outside buttons of the GDO for one to two seconds, then immediately release them.Locate the "Learn" or "Smart" button on the garage door opener receiver (located on the garage door opener motor-head unit). It is often found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit and may be a colored button. Refer to the garage door opener operator's manual for assistance. Press the "Learn" or "Smart" button. The garage door opener operator's manual may provide assistance in determining when the unit is in learn mode.Immediately return to the GDO transmitter in the vehicle. Press and hold the button that is to be learned; the LED above the button will begin to flash slowly. When the garage door moves, immediately release the button. The LED will flash rapidly until programming is complete.Press the button used during the learn operation again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types of garage door openers. If the GDO LED does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the garage door opener.Programming the GDO for Fixed Code ReceiversThis procedure will learn a fixed code garage door opener to the GDO transmitter. To determine if the customer has a fixed code garage door opener, remove the battery cover on the customer supplied transmitter. If a row of dip switches is present, the garage door opener is a fixed code version. The transmitter should have anywhere from 8 to 12 switches. The garage door opener receiver may also have a set of dip switches. If the number of switches on the receiver and the transmitter do not match, use the receiver switches to program the GDO. Each dip switch may have either two or three positions. The two position switch can either be ON or OFF. The three position switch can either be ON, NEUTRAL, or OFF.Write down the positions of the dip switches. The positions of the switches will be entered from left to right into the GDO using the three buttons.Press all three buttons on the GDO for three seconds and immediately release them. The LEDs should flash slowly, indicating that the GDO is in programming mode.Enter the positions of the dip switches one at a time. If a position of a dip switch is on, press the left button on the GDO. If the position is neutral, press the middle button of the GDO. If the position is off, press the right button of the GDO. Enter all of the positions of the dip switches. The procedure must be completed in two and a half minutes.Press and hold all three buttons on the GDO until all the LEDs turn on.Press and hold the button that is to be learned; the LED above the button will begin to flash slowly. When the garage door moves, immediately release the button. The LED will flash rapidly until programming is complete.Press the button used during the learn operation again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types of garage door openers. If the GDO light does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the garage door opener.Erasing ChannelsTo erase programmed channels, press and hold the two outside buttons until the lights on the GDO transmitter begins to flash. Once the LEDs begin to flash, release both buttons; all learned codes are now erased.Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be reprogrammed using the procedures above
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?
