This problem seems to happen either when it's extremely cold or extremely hot...I have aftermarket actuators that are the kind that when one engages/disengages the other does the same.  Well since it's been really hot lately when I use the alarm to lock it one will get stuck in the middle and so it jams I can't unlock it again.  What I'm wondering is if this is a problem with the actuators or the wiring...do I not have enough power going to them?

Hmmm, sounds like it could be a problem with the actuator in the driver's door. I'm guessing that you have a central-locking system, so (like you said), when you lock/unlock the driver's door, the others do the same. You didn't say what kind of car you have, but on my car, you can lock/unlock the driver's door when it's open....kind of a safety feature.....are you sure it's not just messing up when the door is open?
