I don't know if drilling blocks into the beam would work. The beam's metal, and it looks like the landlord has already added wood or something to widen it. So, technically it is wide enough for the other hole on the mount to reach, but then it would half be in the wood and half in the metal, which I don't think would be safe.
The more I think about it, the more I feel I should just add another hole to the mount.
I'm so over this, I just want my damn pole up !
