¤ = air / space
#######
#¤¤¤¤¤#
#¤¤¤¤¤#
#¤¤¤¤¤#

A couple hints:
y2 - y1 = height

After the first row you need (height - 2) rows with space in the center, then the final row.
The left wall is located at x = x1
The right wall is located at x = x2

for i=y1,y2 do
   term.setCursorPos(x,i)
end

Here's some code:

function drawBox(startX, startY, endX, endY)
    for x = startX,endX do
        for y = startY,endY do
            if x == startX or x == endX or y == startY or y == endY then -- On an edge
                term.setCursorPos(x, y)
                term.write("#")
            end
        end
    end
end
