[Woodworkers] A really woodworking question

[Dave Heitstuman via Woodworkers]

Our office assistant is trying to help her BF fix up his kitchen in an older house.  There is a cupboard with an opening that is 24 & 1/8" by 54 & 3/4" that she wants to put doors on.  Apparently it had ¾" plywood doors that were not even close to being flat and closing properly.
She has asked me what my thoughts about a variety of things and all I keep seeing is that 54" is one tall cabinet door and I can't get past that.

She wants to use a decorative butt style hinge to hang them.  She found a company that makes MDF doors today but they are only 5/8" thick and she can't find a hinge that works for that.  I played with some MDF several years ago and was not overly impressed.  I'm thinking that the doors will be too heavy for those little hinges and the screws are not going to hold.

Am I over thinking this?

She keeps asking me to build them and I keep saying "stand in line".  I really don't have time and I don't care much for the BF so I'd rather not build them.  Course I'm not sure how I would anyway.
