The plywood I made the doors from was the wrong choice.

As others have suggested with 1/4" plywood, you can't get
there from here in this application.

IMHO, you have the following choices:

1/4" hardboard, two sides good and painted.

1/4" etched safety glass.

1/4" smoked acrylic sheet complete with finger holes.

Of those 3, my choice would be the acrylic.

Lighter in weight than glass, safety is not an issue.

Only you can determine if painted hardboard will provide
the necessary esthetics.
