Attaching a album closure

[Leona2025]

I recently bought the Prima Montmartre Latch and gatefold album. I am wondering what is the best way to attach these latches so that they don't fall off and are secure.

Isn't that what the brads are for?

Wouldn't hurt to reinforce it with maybe a dab of crystal effects too.

I thought the brads would be more decorative. Should pinch holes in the cover?

The brads would go through the cover and open out on the other side making it secure.
If you are using something like board and are covering it with patterned paper (or whatever) you could cover the front first, put on your closure, then fold around your PP and then it would cover the brad prongs. If that makes sense!

Yes that makes sense. Thanks so much!

That's what I do and I add glue under the latch and in the holes for the brads.

OMG I'm looking for that for years now!
I saw it once and still have no idea what it calls :(
No chance to find it withut a name for it.
Thank you so much for this thread, now I know where I could buy (if it was on stock).
