So, here is a detailed list of what happens

-CLOSED have the ClickDetectors -OPEN and CLOSED have the scripts -When CLOSED is clicked, it's CD's are removed and the OPEN have a ClickDetector Cloned -When OPEN is clicked, it's CD's are removed and the CLOSED have a ClickDetector Cloned.

OPEN:

local OPEN = script.Parent.Parent.OPEN
local CLOSED = script.Parent.Parent.CLOSED

function onClick()
    OPEN.Transparency = 1
    OPEN.CanCollide = false 
    OPEN.ClickDetector:Destroy()
    wait(0.5)
    CLOSED.Transparency = 0
    CLOSED.CanCollide = true
    CLOSED:Clone(game.Lighting.ClickDetector)
end

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClick)

CLOSED:

local OPEN = script.Parent.Parent.OPEN
local CLOSED = script.Parent.Parent.CLOSED

function onClick()
    CLOSED.Transparency = 1
    CLOSED.CanCollide = false   
    CLOSED.ClickDetector:Destroy()
    wait(0.5)
    OPENTransparency = 0
    OPEN.CanCollide = true
    OPEN:Clone(game.Lighting.ClickDetector)
end

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(onClick)

You seem no not be using the clone command correctly. Take your line:

OPEN:Clone(game.Lighting.ClickDetector)

This isn't correct. Try,

OPEN:Clone().Parent=game.Lighting.ClickDetector

Now simply fix your remaining code up and we get:

OPEN:

local OPEN = script.Parent.Parent.OPEN
local CLOSED = script.Parent.Parent.CLOSED

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function())
    OPEN.Transparency = 1
    OPEN.CanCollide = false 
    OPEN.ClickDetector:Destroy()
    wait(0.5)
    CLOSED.Transparency = 0
    CLOSED.CanCollide = true
    CLOSED:Clone().Parent=game.Lighting.ClickDetector
end)

CLOSED:

local OPEN = script.Parent.Parent.OPEN
local CLOSED = script.Parent.Parent.CLOSED

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:connect(function())
    CLOSED.Transparency = 1
    CLOSED.CanCollide = false   
    CLOSED.ClickDetector:Destroy()
    wait(0.5)
    OPENTransparency = 0
    OPEN.CanCollide = true
    OPEN:Clone().Parent=game.Lighting.ClickDetector
end)
