0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

A-Door Additions is a UK-based company specializing in bespoke partition wall solutions for a variety of sectors including education, commercial offices, and residential spaces. The company offers a comprehensive service from design through installation and aftercare, positioning itself as a trusted provider in the South West of England and nationwide. Their website reflects a professional and consistent brand image with detailed descriptions of their services and project case studies. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with Elementor and integrates modern SEO and analytics tools, indicating a mature digital presence. Security posture is adequate with HTTPS and no visible vulnerabilities, but lacks published security policies and GDPR compliance documentation. Overall, the website is safe, professional, and trustworthy, though improvements in privacy and security transparency are recommended.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Strict-Transport-Security header

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

      • CWE-319
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V3.4.1
    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The company operates primarily in the construction and interior partition sector, targeting schools, offices, and homeowners. Their business model includes bespoke design, manufacturing, and installation services, supported by project management. The website content and WHOIS data indicate a stable, long-established business with a regional focus and growing national reach. Partnerships with digital service providers like digitoolbox.com enhance their online presence. The absence of privacy and security policies suggests an opportunity to strengthen compliance and customer trust. The company’s market position is solid within its niche, leveraging quality and customization as competitive advantages.

Security posture

The website employs HTTPS and uses Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking, reflecting standard security and analytics practices. However, the lack of visible security headers, privacy policies, cookie consent mechanisms, and incident response information indicates gaps in compliance and transparency. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The security posture is moderate but could be significantly improved by implementing and publishing comprehensive privacy, cookie, and security policies, adding security headers, and establishing a vulnerability disclosure process.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a comprehensive privacy policy and cookie consent mechanism to ensure GDPR compliance.
  2. Implement security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to enhance protection.
  3. Create and publish a security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and readiness.
  4. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to comply with standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern WordPress platform using Elementor for page building, supported by jQuery and various optimized CSS and JS assets. It integrates Google Tag Manager and Analytics for tracking and Rank Math for SEO optimization. Hosting is provided by Namecheap, Inc., a reputable registrar and hosting provider. The site demonstrates good mobile optimization and SEO practices, though performance is moderate and could benefit from further optimization. No critical technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports a professional and functional online presence with room for enhancements in security and privacy features.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
