You need use new object of MargingLayoutParams

    final FrameLayout.MarginLayoutParams marginLayoutParams = new      
                      FrameLayout.MarginLayoutParams(rvContacts.getLayoutParams());
    marginLayoutParams.leftMargin = left;
    marginLayoutParams.topMargin = top;
    marginLayoutParams.rightMargin = right;
    marginLayoutParams.bottomMargin = bottom;

    recyclerView.setLayoutParams(marginLayoutParams);
    recyclerView.requestLayout();
