My depth space is very limited. I don't have room for two 3/4" doors
What if the spline(?) for the track is offset for each door? You might
have to trim any interior shelves by a little.
How much _can_ you sacrifice in shelf depth? It wouldn't take but a
1/2" thick frame or maybe even 3/8" with a rabbet to add sufficient
stiffness to the panels. Doesn't have to be a centered groove, a rear
flush rabbet'll do the same trick...
The panels/doors have to pass by each other
So, they still can/could, just need the width of the thickness of the
panels which could be as little as 3/4" total plus a smidge for
clearance...
And, in fact, they can still go in the 1/4" grooves simply rabbet the
bottom/top edges to fit and turn the to panel overhangs to front/rear,
respectively on each.
