How to prevent user from scrolling while implementing swipeRefreshLayout?

In my app I have a recycler view with 20 - 30 items and I have the function to pull to refresh the content, and I want to prevent the user from scrolling the view while the refresh is in progress because it creates an error if the user ties to scroll and the regresh is in progress, but I'm really lost on how to do it :/

eRecyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recycler_view);
        RecyclerView.LayoutManager eLayoutManager = new GridLayoutManager(this, 2);
        eRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(eLayoutManager);

 swipeRefreshLayout = findViewById(R.id.refreshSecondLevel);
        swipeRefreshLayout.setOnRefreshListener(new SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener() {
            @Override
            public void onRefresh() { 
               loadNewContent();
               Handler delay = new Handler();
                delay.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() { 
                        swipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
                    }
                }, 3000);

            }
        });

You should override canScrollVertically method on your RecyclerView.LayoutManager:

public class ToggledScrollLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager {
    private boolean mIsScrollEnabled = true;

    public ToggledScrollLayoutManager(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public void setScrollEnabled(boolean enabled) {
        this.mIsScrollEnabled = enabled;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean canScrollVertically() {
        return mIsScrollEnabled && super.canScrollVertically();
    }
}

Then use it when user refreshed the page:

recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
ToggledScrollLayoutManager layoutManager = new ToggledScrollLayoutManager();
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);

swipeRefreshLayout = findViewById(R.id.refreshSecondLevel);
swipeRefreshLayout.setOnRefreshListener(new SwipeRefreshLayout.OnRefreshListener() {
    @Override
        public void onRefresh() { 
            loadNewContent();
            layoutManager.setScrollEnabled(false);
            Handler delay = new Handler();
            delay.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() { 
                    swipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
                    layoutManager.setScrollEnabled(true);
                }
            }, 3000);
        }
    }
});
