We have a curfew. Eleven. No exceptions. And I will be in charge of lockdown tonight.

I couldn't find "lockdown" in my dictionary somehow. Does the part in bold mean "I will be in charge of locking the door?" Thanks.

"Lockdown" comes from prison usage where the nightly locking of the cell doors is "lockdown".
