changing oak veneer door shade

[janz70]

Hi all , we have replaced a oak door on the landing and I have put 1 coat of varnish on but its no where near the colour of other doors which are a nice orange shade.

Can I use coloured varnish to bring the colour to the others

Are you sure the other doors are oak?, orange hue is associated with pine.

the left door is about 15 years old - right is new as you can probably tell lol

right door has 1 coat of oil based pu satin - same pu as other

yes it is, they are both varnished with the same PU varnish but the only difference is the age

Varnish has yellowed with age , any smokers in the home.
