I have seen similar set up but Instead of the renishaw it was a claymore mine

Use a single "sensor/probe" and a wire loop system to be used as a medium to trigger the sensor/probe, with no moving components.

So what are the advantage compared to 2, eventually 4 microswitches ???? (a renishaw is just that, 3 switches, well made and very expensive).
Note that for my Z axis, I indeed modified the microswitch which I do not consider fit for this positioning job (OK for X and Y), to work like the simple circuit opening of the renishaw (berylium leaf spring and gold plated contact) !
