While your main question has been answered very well already - your session timeout is a measure of inactivity, and you almost certainly don't need to lock this at all ...
> I want the session variable to last around 4 hours... ... you should probably reduce the value of the session timeout. You don't want unused sessions taking up memory unnecessarily. If someone logs into the application and continues to use it all day, their session will stick around, but if they leave the application their session should ideally time out shortly after that.
