As the campus continues to grow, all new facilities, both University and Nebraska Medicine, are employing the Stanley Best/Dorma Kaba keying system instead of the Schlage system used exclusively at Nebraska Medicine. Nebraska Medicine facilities like the Lauritzen Outpatient Center, Buffett Cancer Center and other facilities that are remodeled transition to Stanley Best/Dorma Kaba as part of the enterprise physical access system.
