Build each door frame from 1x3s sized to the actual opening, joined with 3/4" pocket holes and 1-1/4" pocket hole screws (two per joint). Attach a 1/4" plywood panel to the back of each frame with 5/8" brad nails and glue — the panel should be about 1" larger than the frame's center opening, not the full door size. On the stove, attach the acrylic glass cooktop with a suitable glue or predrilled small hardware screws. Hang each door with surface mount hinges on the side and a magnetic clasp to keep it closed, then add knobs or handles.
