The cut off nail method works great. Once you put glue on the surface it makes it hard to keep thing aligned. Apply the glue, align the face frame and clamp it into place, nothing should slip. Just make sure you are aligned before clamping. However, I would not suggest doing this on 1/4" face frame. I would do as other have suggested; go with a 1/2" or 3/4" face frame.
