Hinge strips are the perfect tool to add flexibility to the pages of your portfolio. Photo paper and other heavier pages do not bend or turn easily and have a tendency to flip back. These hinges are made with a very thin, flexible fabric that allows the page to turn easily and lie flat. On the left of each hinge is a strip of 100 lb paper, which adds stability and strength to the fabric where the holes are punched. The following photographs provide step by step assistance to show you how to apply these custom made hinge strips.
Photo 2: Peel the 1/4" backing paper to expose the adhesive strip.
Photo 3: Carefully place the photograph on top of the adhesive strip and align it with the edge of the adhesive.
Photo 4: Apply pressure along strip to ensure full contact.
Photo 5: With cover removed, place the hinged page over the screw posts.
Photo 6: Place the cover on top of the stack of hinged pages and reinsert the screws.
The hinge strips can be purchased at kdbooks.com. They are sized and hole punched to fit Kristin Dunn bookbinding & design portfolios. They will not necessarily fit any other brand of portfolio. Hinge strips are available in black and white. You can purchase white hinge strips here at kdbooks.com and black hinge strips here.
