"Using Transforms, Event Classes"

I have a need to take events that normally increase in count, and take each of the individual event out and create a new event. Sounds confusing, but here is the example.
I have a device that controls our electronic door locks. Each time a handle is opened by the key pad, a trap is sent from the device. In Zenoss, this will read as eventClassMapping emka.2.221. We have 4 doors that we open with the key pad. Each time a different door is opened, the count goes up 1 and the Event Details will change.This is all fine and dandy, but what I am looking for is a new descriptive event each time an individual door is opened. I am including the details from Zenoss with this post. If you look at the count, 4 at the time, I had opened all 4 doors. Only 1 event was created, but I did notice that there were 4 emka.2.1.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x events that showed each door individually (6150, 6151, 6160, 6161).
What can I do to create a new event for each instance (count) that occurs when a trap is sent? Can I use the emka.2.1.x.x.x.x.x.x to make them unique? If so how is it done?
Thanks in advance for your help.
