Thanks for the feedback Mike, I’ll look to adding a nut arrangement into a revised design, it seems like a sensible idea. Thanks for the support in testing these out for me too!

I don’t think you need to worry about the lifetime of the parts, because they are not exposed to UV from daylight, and the doors are extremely weight and very fragile, so they are likely to be treated with care.
The only improvement I can suggest is that the hinges are drilled through and an M3 nut and bolt used to secure them to the panel. This would increase the strength of the installation and if the bolt heads were black, would look original.
