Best Answer

The Masonic term "Lodge" can refer to a particular local group of Masons that has been properly chartered by a Grand Lodge, to the building they meet in, or to an "official" Masonic meeting. How you close a Masonic Lodge therefore depends on what Lodge you are referring to. In short, the answers to closing each are:

A Lodge meeting (e.g. a Lodge of Master Masons) is closed in a similar manner to that by which it was opened, according to a ritual prescribed by their Grand Lodge. Although very similar, these vary somewhat between jurisdictions. To get much more detail, you really have to join and see for yourself.

A local Lodge, (e.g. Freemasons Lodge No. 999) would be closed when it has surrendered its charter to, or had it removed by, the Grand Lodge which issued it.

A lodge building, often called a Masonic Temple, would be closed the same ay any other building is closed -- turn out the lights and lock the doors on your way out.
