How to create read only checkbox MVC?

I'm using MVC. In the view there is check box, So I want to make it read only or user can't change it..

This is my view

     <tr id="pnHireSet">
                <td class="adminTitle">
                    @Html.LabelFor(model => model.IsHireSet):
                </td>
                <td class="adminData">
                    @Html.EditorFor(model => model.IsHireSet)

//This is check box. I want set is read only....
                    @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.IsHireSet)
                </td>
            </tr>

If you want to visualize the checkbox but turn of the control of the checkbox then simply you can try 

@Html.CheckBoxFor(model => model.IsActive, new { onclick = "return false" })

I don't prefer to use disable=false because if you need the checkbox value to the server then disable always send false either it views as checked in state, that's the problem and difference.

Just use DisplayFor instead of EditorFor.

If you need the value to be included in the form submission you could add a HiddenFor as well.

<td class="adminData">
    @Html.DisplayFor(model => model.IsHireSet)
    @Html.HiddenFor(model => model.IsHireSet)
</td>
