You can set those in your controller dynamically.
for example
def admin_edit():
db.tablename.fieldname.writable = True
db.tablename.fieldname.readable = True
return dict(form=crud(db.tablename))
def normal_edit():
db.tablename.fieldname.writable = False
db.tablename.fieldname.readable = False
return dict(form=crud(db.tablename))
