Փակել is a common transitive verb used to indicate shutting something (a door, window, shop, book, etc.). Use փակիր for the singular informal imperative and փակեք for polite or plural commands. Փակվել is the reflexive/intransitive form meaning "to become closed," and կողպել means "to lock," which is related but not identical. The opposite verb is բացել (to open).
