im in the middle of putting the same kind of kitchen base together
& i used some 18mm x 30mm strips of wood just inside the doors to
light proof it, i cut the strips to size, drilled the holes & countersunk
them, that way the screw heads were flush & wont catch on anything,
i also used some hard as nails to make sure & ran some draft excluder
strips around the inside to seal any light or smells inside.
i also screwed 2 bits of 3 x 2 wood to the bottom of the unit & fitted
lockable castor wheels, its a doddle to put together & move the unit about.
