I've just purchased a sheet of aluminium to act as a kick plate beneath some bike hanging hooks.

It will need holes drilled in the four corners to attach it to the wall, and I am guessing that, although I have the relevant bits, trying to drill through this with my battery powered electric drill is going to be a futile and frustrating exercise? Has anyone drilled through aluminium sheet like this before with relative ease? If not, can anyone recommend somewhere friendly in North/East London that has a drill press and that wouldn't mind doing it for me one Saturday?
