Accessibility Statement

Accessibility

FGH Security recognises the need for the website to be accessible to all. We have implemented a number of features to make this website easy to use, especially for users with disabilities. This website aims to conform to Level A standard of the W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. It also includes many features found in AA sites such as colour considerations and easily resizable fonts.

Accessibility features on this website

The following features improve navigation for text only browsers, screen reader users, and users of keyboard navigation.

Style sheets

This site uses Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for visual layout. If your browser supports it, style sheets can be disabled or over-written to customise the appearance of the website, to your preference.

Font sizes

You can change the font size of each page to your preference through the browser.

  • In Internet Explorer: select View, then Text Size, and then your preferred size.
  • In Netscape: select View, then Text Zoom, and then your preferred percentage size.
  • In Firefox: press CTRL + to increase font size and CTRL – to decrease. CTRL 0 will reset sizes to default.

Forms

Labels are used to assist access to form fields. All forms follow a logical tab sequence.

Tables

Tables are used to display tabular data. Tables are not used for general site layout. This means our tables are being used in a correct and meaningful manner.

Colours

The site has been designed to be easy to read through its colour combinations.

Links

We have worked hard to ensure that our links are meaningful, and some links are explained in greater detail by using a title attribute.

Scripting

We have worked hard to ensure that our links are meaningful, and some links are explained in greater detail by using a title attribute.
