Write-lock a whole table during transaction

I need to perform a delicate operation to my table in which I will solely insert, delete and select upon all of my rows and no God may interfere with the table during this operation: the table will be in an inconsistent state and any concurrent MySQL session shall not be allowed to modify it until commit-ed. The use of SELECT ... FOR UPDATE | LOCK IN SHARE MODE is not suitable because, while it may potentially be used to lock all the rows in the table , it won't prevent the insertion of further rows by a concurrent session. Basically, I need to LOCK TABLES my_table WRITE within the body of a transaction. The table contains about 20,000 rows and a master-slave, mixed-format replication is in place over a slow connection so, for any workaround, I'd prefer to avoid using temporary tables which may faint the slave , and the amount of data dumped into the binlog should ideally be minimized. The engine is InnoDB on MySQL 5.6, for both master and slave.
