In the folder with the files that should be banned, you should place the file .htaccess

<FilesMatch ~ "\.(php|htm|html|js)$">
  Order allow,deny
  Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

One line in .htaccess{[3 is enough]} 

Deny from all

Put the file in the folder you want to close. Everything in the folder will be closed.

To prevent the site directories from being viewed, add to .htaccess the following code:

Options All -Indexes
