Narrative:
On approach during our speed reduction from 250 to 210 and leveling at 13000ft the aileron lockout EICAS and ail lock on overhead panel came on. After referencing the irregulars [it was apparent] the aircraft outboard ailerons had not unlocked. Aircraft was noticeably harder to turn using ailerons (maybe just some what stiffer than a 757.) [we] continued to a normal landing.
