 In the discussion settings you can set comments to close after X days.
 This works for regular posts, but not for custom post types. The comments
 on the latter stay open regardless.

 Issue experienced on two separate WordPress installations, one of which
 had all plugins disabled and was using the default TwentyEleven theme.

 To recreate the issue follow these steps:

 '''1.''' Register a custom post type in the theme's functions.php file
 using the following code...

 {{{
 add_action( 'init', 'create_post_type_1' );
 function create_post_type_1() {
         register_post_type( 'book_reviews',
                 array(
                         'labels' => array(
                                 'name' => __( 'Book Reviews' ),
                                 'singular_name' => __( 'Book Review' ),
                                 'all_items' => __( 'All Reviews' ),
                                 'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Book
 Review' ),
                                 'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Book Review' ),
                                 'view_item' => __( 'View Review' )
                         ),
                         'public' => true,
                         'has_archive' => true,
                         'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'book-reviews'),
                         'supports' => array(
                                 'title',
                                 'editor',
                                 'author',
                                 'thumbnail',
                                 'excerpt',
                                 'trackbacks',
                                 'custom-fields',
                                 'comments',
                                 'revisions'
                         ),
                 'taxonomies' => array('post_tag')
                 )
         );
 }
 }}}

 '''2.''' In your site's discussion settings, set comments to automatically
 close after 1 day.

 '''3.''' Publish a regular blog post and a custom post type (CPT) post.

 '''4.''' Check back in 24 hours and you'll find that the comments on the
 regular post are now closed, while the comments on the CPT post remain
 open.
