I never tried this myself. But you can try this.

Looks like it involves ADB after every bootup.

Can I ask why you want / need to.

OnePlus are very good about not caring I'd bootloader is unlocked for warranty purposes and after a year the warranty doesn't matter anyway so what's the risk? You can always relock the bootloader later?

No point in not unlocking the bootloader, 1+ doesn't care about it.
