draw a rectangle on top of the 1st plot and delete it
before doing the 2nd plot:

...

set yrange [0:2000]
set grid

set object 1 rectangle from screen 0.08,0.28 rto 0.3,0.3

plot "file1.dat" using 1:3:4 title 'one' with yerrorlines \
      lw 2 pt 1 linecolor rgb "red",\
   "file2.dat" using 1:3:4 title 'two' with yerrorlines \
      lw 2 pt 3 linecolor rgb "blue"

unset object 1

...
