How did you wire the relays for the locks? Look here at the 4th diagram:

If you ground What, then it works? The outputs are typically 500ma or less, so you will need relays to make them work.

Or Put a test light or DMM on the outputs from the alarm and see what the polarity of the outputs are.

I am not familiar with that alarm. What does the manual say about the door lock outputs?
