Default driver door out of alignment

Hey guys...over the Summer i replaced both door lock actuators with Dorman brand. The passenger side opens/closes fine, but the driver's door gets 'stuck' when i go to open it. I can pull hard on it and it opens, but sometimes it will not open. Also, the outside driver's door handle looks like it isn't fully in the down position.

I tried to move the door lock actuator, but with 3 screws i cannot get it fixed. Is there anything i'm missing?

Check the hinge pins on the door, with age, the wear, and the door can sag.
