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:

I may do the hardboard as a second choice. First choice right now is
smoked acrylic glass. I will have to give up on the cherry doors but my
