You can use a mozilla.cfg file to lock prefs or specify default values.
You can place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder to specify using mozilla.cfg.

You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:

defaultPref();  // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref();  // lock pref, disallow changes
