How to keep closed the Sliding Menu even when user slides to open it?

Question

In my application, I have some screens where I don't want the drawer menu to open when the user slides. How can I do that? The app uses only one activity and the rest are fragments.

Try this:

mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);

Use below method in your Activity and call it as your need.

 public void enableViews(boolean enable) {
       if (enable) {
            //You may not want to open the drawer on swipe from the left in this case
            drawer.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);
            // Remove hamburger
            toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false);
            // Show back button
            getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
            // when DrawerToggle is disabled i.e. setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(false), navigation icon
            // clicks are disabled i.e. the UP button will not work.
            // We need to add a listener, as in below, so DrawerToggle will forward
            // click events to this listener.
            toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    // Doesn't have to be onBackPressed
                    onBackPressed();
                }
            });
        } else {
            //You must regain the power of swipe for the drawer.
            drawer.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_UNLOCKED);
            // Remove back button
            getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);

            // Show hamburger
            toggle.setDrawerIndicatorEnabled(true);
            // Remove the/any drawer toggle listener
            toggle.setToolbarNavigationClickListener(null);
        }
    }

Note:- Call enableViews(true) for locking and enableViews(false) for unlocking
