I had lots of model admins to register and hide, if you want a more DRY solution, this worked for me (Django 1.10, Python 3.5)

# admin.py

def register_hidden_models(*model_names):
    for m in model_names:
        ma = type(
            str(m)+'Admin',
            (admin.ModelAdmin,),
            {
                'get_model_perms': lambda self, request: {}
            })
        admin.site.register(m, ma)

register_hidden_models(MyModel1, MyModel2, MyModel3)

I guess you could roll it into a utility class if you want to re-use it across apps.
