It helps to use a hammer drill. But, I wouldn't try to drill through steel. Try to determine where the steel beam is located. I have found that curtains only require a small hole with a plastic anchor. Also, when they provide a 2-screw curtain bracket, I only use the top screw. The bottom screw doesn't really support anything.
