If this is simply a Code consideration, then the NEC does not require a visible/lockable disconnect. You can refer to this SolarABCs document for a thorough discussion of the subject:

I said cool and didn't put one in. The inspector said he couldn't sticker the project because the utility disco was missing. I asked to see where that disconnect is required by code and he said he would get back to me and drove off.
