How are you making the nets. What did you use for latches? And what did you use for door pins?

I'm using nylon webbing and rivets to hold them together. And I used a gate latch from lowes

Is there a lot of rattle? Which latch did you use. I'm wanting to build my own eventually so I apologize for all the questions.
