Temperamental or shall I say electric locks with real close tolerances can  
be another weather effected item that probable most people don't ever realize 
or  think about.  Small clearances of all metal parts are effected by  extreme 
heat and cold. 
 
It can be frustrating to say the least when you pull up to an electric lock  
switch that you expected to clear up in and now you can't even get in or worse 
 yet you can't get out. Sometimes its only 1/200 of an inch but you aren't 
going  to get it till its been adjusted.  Having a maintainer in the area REALLY 
 helps on those occasions. :)
