Question Drilling Lintels

Hi,

Trying to put up a curtain rail and have come up against a steel lintel. I've been down to Homebase and bought myself a steel drill but it's making no impact on the lintel. I have a powerful drill operating atthe recommended speed but no luck ...... any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

Mart
