Accessibility Statement
Last updated: January 1, 2025
Our Commitment
Florida Garage Door Authority is committed to ensuring that our website and digital services are accessible to all people, including those with disabilities. We strive to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA standards as published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
Accessibility Features
We have taken the following steps to make our website more accessible:
- Semantic HTML: We use proper heading hierarchy, landmark roles, and semantic elements to support screen readers and assistive technologies.
- Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements are accessible via keyboard, including forms, menus, and buttons.
- Color Contrast: We maintain sufficient color contrast ratios between text and background elements to meet WCAG 2.2 AA requirements.
- Alt Text: Meaningful alternative text is provided for images that convey information.
- Form Labels: All form inputs include descriptive labels and clear error messaging.
- Responsive Design: Our website adapts to various screen sizes and supports text resizing up to 200% without loss of content or functionality.
- Focus Indicators: Visible focus indicators are provided for all interactive elements to assist keyboard navigation.
Ongoing Efforts
We view accessibility as an ongoing effort, not a one-time project. Our team regularly reviews and tests our website to identify and address accessibility barriers. We incorporate accessibility considerations into our development process for all new features and content.
Known Limitations
While we strive to make all areas of our website fully accessible, some content may not yet fully conform to WCAG 2.2 AA standards. We are actively working to address any known issues, including:
- Some older PDF documents may not be fully accessible. We are working to remediate these documents and provide accessible alternatives.
- Third-party embedded content (such as financing partner applications) may have their own accessibility limitations outside our direct control.
