How to lock metadata on albums?

There’s no place in Plex to set individual disc titles on multi-disc sets, so there’s nothing to lock. If you have individual disc titles, either in your folder names or in embedded tags, Plex doesn’t use them.

The lock icons, where they exist, are intended to prevent those tags from being overwritten during a metadata refresh. There are instances where that lock isn’t respected, but that is the intent.
