Turn them into func_doors. Give them both the same targetname. Put a trigger_multiple in the center and have it target the doors.

Or just get tltrude's doors2 tutorial

It is by far the easiest way to learn about doors.

yes, triggering a door would do the trick. Do check out tltrude's tut its very helpful.

you can also use waypoints for the wall but that's not as easy as doors I guess

waypoints are much harder.!

What you need to do is make a wall above the ceiling same height and everything as the room then press "n" and click the "D" button and it will go down.

Just to add another way if you make the walls script_objects and put a trigger_multiple in the room with a Key: setthread and Value: dropwalls then do this if you want the walls to drop lets say 144 units

dropwalls:
$wall1 movedown 144
$wall2 movedown 144
$wall3 movedown 144
$wall4 movedown 144

$wall1 move
$wall2 move
$wall3 move
$wall4 move
end

I would add a sound in there too

that will add more realisism if you need it.

I forgot you should add a speed setting too like

$wall1 speed 10

for 10 units per second
