Accessibility report for hobbylobby.com

Accessibility grade: D
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on August 6, 2026.

Accessibility isn't a nice-to-have — it's the law. This automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan of hobbylobby.com flagged 6 types of barrier to fix.

On this page, the most frequent barrier is "An accessibility rule failed on this page" — found on 16 elements. In total the scan flagged 36 issues across 6 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.

Accessibility issues found, with fixes

Some images on this page have no description for screen readers.

WCAG 1.1.1 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Blind and low-vision users rely on screen readers to read pages aloud. When an image has no description, the screen reader either skips it entirely or reads out the file name — useless. Missing alt text is the #2 lawsuit-magnet category.

How to fix it: In your site editor, click each image and look for an 'Alt text' or 'Image description' field. Write a short sentence describing what the image shows or what it links to. For purely decorative images (dividers, background flourishes), enter empty alt text or check a 'decorative' box if the platform offers one.

WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.

How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.

Some text on this page is too light to read against its background.

WCAG 1.4.3 (Level AA) EN 301 549 Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: People with low vision, older eyes, or anyone reading on a sunny phone screen can't make out faint text. Color blindness affects about 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women. Insufficient contrast is the #1 most-common cause of accessibility lawsuits — every Domino's-style ADA suit cites it.

How to fix it: If you use a website builder (Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, WordPress with a theme), open your site styles or theme color settings and pick darker text colors or lighter backgrounds. Aim for very dark text on white, or very light text on dark. Free check at webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker. If you have a developer, ask them to ensure all text meets WCAG AA contrast (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).

A button's visible text doesn't match the description it announces to screen readers.

WCAG 2.5.3 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: A user dictating 'click Submit' to voice-control software may see 'Submit' on screen but the announce-name is something else, so the voice command fails.

How to fix it: Developer fix: 'aria-label should start with or fully contain the visible button text'.

Some buttons or links are too small to tap reliably on touch screens.

target-size · serious · 1 instance

WCAG 2.5.8 (Level AA) Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: WCAG 2.2 requires touch targets to be at least 24×24 pixels. Small targets are a problem for users with hand tremors, large fingers, or motor disabilities. They're also frustrating for everyone.

How to fix it: In your editor, increase padding around small icon buttons. If your developer is involved, ask them to ensure all interactive elements have minimum 24×24 CSS pixels of clickable area.
