Framer Accessibility for Enterprise Compliance

For many enterprises, accessibility is not optional. It is a legal requirement, a procurement checkbox and, increasingly, a basic expectation. The good news is that an accessible Framer site is very achievable. The work is mostly discipline, not magic. Here is how enterprise teams approach it.

Why accessibility matters at enterprise scale

Beyond being the right thing to do, accessibility reduces legal risk, widens your audience and often improves usability for everyone. Large organizations are also more likely to be held to standards like WCAG by customers, partners and regulators. Treating it as a requirement, not a nice-to-have, is the safer posture.

Build it in, do not bolt it on

Accessibility is far cheaper when it is designed in from the start. Retrofitting an inaccessible site is slow and frustrating. Make it part of the brief and the build so it is baked into the components everyone reuses, rather than fixed page by page later.

The fundamentals to get right

• Sufficient color contrast for text and interactive elements

• Meaningful alt text on images

• Clear, logical heading structure

• Keyboard navigation that works

• Visible focus states and readable font sizes

These basics cover a large share of common accessibility issues on marketing sites.

Make it part of governance

Like performance, accessibility slips when no one owns it. Add it to your publishing checklist, review new components against it, and test periodically. Building it into how you publish is what keeps a large site compliant over time, which connects directly to Framer CMS governance for large teams.

Test with real tools and real people

Automated checkers catch common problems, but they miss context. Combine automated testing with manual keyboard and screen reader checks, and where stakes are high, involve people who rely on assistive technology.
