Various binding systems can be used for applying hinge board covers to your materials.

Side-staple: Place material between board covers and align with the spine and bottom edge. Use a heavy duty long-armed stapler to staple evenly across the hinge cloth.

Screw Posts: Line up your material between the front and back covers even with the spine and bottom edge. Punch or drill three holes 3/8 inch from the edge—the first one-inch from the top, the second in the center, and the third one-inch from the bottom. Insert screw posts through the hole and secure into the screw post backing.

Lacing: Place material between the board covers and align with the spine and bottom edge. Punch three holes: one center, one inch from the top and one inch from the bottom. Tie together with laces.
