At first glance, the cabinet surface seemed flat and the center doorjam strip in yellow was slightly slanted to the left kinda like a backslash ( \ ). All four legs and metal caster wheels seemed level with the floor.
Upon closer inspection, what was noticed was that the entire cabinet was a little shaky so i checked and tightened all the corners braces that would have kept the entire structure square. But that still did not solve the problem. Shaving the jammed areas A and B also did not solve the inital problem.
But at long last a eureka moment occurred when I squeezed both sides of the cabined and noticed that both doors suddenly became unjammed and were able to open and close freely. Not only that, I noticed that the central door jam became vertical, corners A and B were no longer touching the top and bottom of the cabinet and that both doors were aligned with each other horizontally and vertically, and that the front right castor wheel was no longer touching the floor.

Could this have been the original problem all this while? A single unseated castor wheel causing warped cabinet instability resulting in jammed doors? So after exerting pressure on the cabinet to seat the castor completely into the front left leg, both doors were able to open and close freely without jamming.
