How can I lock the y axis at a specific number?

The x axis is the horizontal one, so that will have your dimension (date, page, product, etc.). The y axis is the one that changes with the metric amounts. As far as I know there isn't any way to lock the axis, it's reactive based on the data.
The closest thing I can think of to "locking it" is to create a static metric at your upper limit and add it to your graph. The one limitation to this is that if the metric you are actually interested in goes above that amount, it won't stop the graph from scaling up, but it will prevent it from scaling down.
For example, you want it to always be at 5,000.
First step would be to create a metric like this. Click "add", select "static number", and set it to whatever value you want.
Next, add it to your table alongside the metric you want to analyze. I just pulled some sample data for this.
Finally, make your visualization. The "static" metric will be a line along the top of the table, but assuming that this is above the upper threshold of the metric you're looking at, it won't impact your visualization too much. Again, it is worth mentioning that if your other metric goes above this limit, it will raise the upper limit of the graph, but it will never lower it as long as you have a metric at that amount. You can of course give the metric a different name, like "upper limit" or something else. But you can't hide it from the graph because if it isn't visible, it won't impact the axis.
