On a cabinet I am building, the doors are 26" wide and 63" long. Is an 1/8" reveal large enough?

Thanks

What are the doors made of and what is the construction? If we're talking solid wood slabs then it's no where near enough. If they are plywood or frame and panel it might be too much. Inset or overlay? That will make a big difference also. If construction permits, I prefer something closer to 1/16" for appearance sake.

Thanks Steve. They are inset doors. THe stiles are 3" wide and rails 4". They are 1 3/4" solid cherry for the rails and stiles, and there will be an insulated piece of glass that is 20 3/4" x 63" for each door. I plan on using Soss hinges which are zero clearance (invisible) type. Here's the site http://www.soss.com/productdesc/
