A Detailed Guide on How to Lock Screen on Kindle Fire
Step 1:

Now that we’ve removed all the apps we chose (in our case, it’s just Spider Solitaire), we can move them around freely by tapping and holding one of them, then dragging it to a new area. In this example, we’ve moved Solitaire to the very top of the screen using this technique.

Customizing the Lock Screen Background on Kindle
Fire is elementary. Just follow the steps below to get started:
1. Swipe down from the top of your device’s Home screen to open up Quick Settings.
2. Tap the More button (this may be labeled with an icon that looks like three vertical dots).
3. Scroll down and tap Device Options, then About Tablet in some older devices.
4. Now, look for Build Number and tap on it seven times until you see a message stating you are now X steps away from being a Developer! If you don’t see this message but still have Developer options available, continue with step 5 instead of step 4.

6. Turn on ADB Debugging by tapping it so that a green checkmark appears, then exit out of the menu.

8. Once inside of the lock screen, make sure that this is where you want your new Background image to appear (tap Browse if necessary) before pressing done.
9. Now select Picture or Photo Grid to begin browsing for an image, and choose one accordingly when prompted by pressing either OK or Choose.
