MVC Razor Form Set Checkbox to Checked + Lock - html

Question

I'm building a form and have used the default scaffolding option based on my model in visual studio. What I need is for the checkbox to be checked by default when the view is loaded and disabled. I.E I want to preventing the user from changing the checkbox state.
The view code looks like this:
#model Models.Checkertest
#{
ViewBag.Title = "Test";
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
<h2>Test</h2>
#using (Html.BeginForm("Test", "AccountManagement", FormMethod.Post, new { #class = "form-horizontal", role = "form" }))
{
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<h4>User Creation</h4>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.Label("Enable Bypass", htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-3" })
<div class="col-md-4">
<div class="checkbox">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.box1)
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.box1, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
}

In your action method in your controller, set the box1 property to true on your model. It would look something like this:
var model = new Checkertest {box1 = true};
return View(model);
To make the checkbox readonly, set the readonly attribute on it, like this:
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.box1, new {#readonly = "readonly"})
